While at Chapman I played in 8th and 9th grade. I only weighed about 145 my 8th year and 155 my 9th year. I was small for my class as everyone else was about 6'0 and 200 by then. I was told I was too small.
Even coming off the bench for 3 minutes of a game late I had 2 tackles, a sack, and a fumble recovery. But I like playtime so basically figuring I would never get any PT I became the mascot and hung out with flexible cheerleaders the next 3 years!
