“First, I want to thank my Lord and Savor for blessing me this opportunity. I want to thank everyone that has poured into me and helped me get to where I am now; my parents,my sisters, my football coaches and my wrestling coaches.
“I want to thank those who I’ve competed against and pushed me to be who I am. To all the teammates I’ve had throughout the years that helped me to grow. I want to thank all the coaches who have recruited me and given me an experience few get the opportunity to receive. I’m proud and grateful to announce that I’m going to be Jackrabbit!!!”
