Practice tempo has been hyped ALL WEEK. We've prepared to come out against Chino with a hard push up front in the trenches with both our offense & defensive line. Last year we suffered a lost to Chino for our first game.

Then getting knocked out in the 2nd Round of Playoffs by Muir High School. This time, our team mentality is going ALL OUT & giving it your all. Now that it's my junior year, I'm trying my best to lead my team with a hype mentality but a humble heart as well. We all worked so hard ever since the off season, now tomorrow will determine which team wants it more.

What I look forward to working on mainly is my defensive techniques & reaching the next level on offense as a tight end & a fullback. I understand that the next level of football is all about speed, which is what I focus on during every workout. Tonight & during the season, I look to my offensive line: Carl Bryan, Vontress Atkins, Julian Douge, Noah Garcia & Josh Buchholz to have a huge impact on our offensive side of the ball, along with my quarterback Xavier Beltran & running back William Bryan.

On defense Matthew Preston, Fernando Castro & Austin Gabb have my back at the linebacker spots with my defensive backs Parrish Stanford, William Bryan, Allen Salguero & Justin Berry. Overall, we look to seek revenge from last year & to play hard all season.
