* Hobbies: Aviation, hunting, going to Philadelphia to watch the Eagles play.

* Favorite sports memory: Beating Riverfield my ninth grade year right after I moved up to varsity.

* Most embarrassing sports memory: When I was in the 10th grade, I was playing guard and Trinity ran a twist. I was supposed to block No. 72, who was about 6-7. He ended up knocking my helmet off.

* Funniest sports memory: When R.J. Fleming jumped over David Picard, who was trying to make a tackle. It wasn’t funny at the time, but we laugh about it now.

* If I could put my position coach (Josh Morrison) through one drill, it would be: Wind sprints.

* Best player I have ever played against: Stevan Ridley of Trinity.

* Favorite athlete: Brett Favre.

* Favorite team: Philadelphia Eagles.

* Sporting event I would most like to attend: The BCS National Championship Game.

* Favorite class: English IV with Mrs. (Leslie) Petrus.

* Favorite movie: ‘8 Seconds.’

* Favorite food: Filet mignon.

* Pet peeve: People who don’t show up for practice.

* One possession I couldn’t live without: My truck.

* Person who has had the most influence on my live (other than my parents): My grandfather, Bill Spires.

* Career ambition: Undecided.
