What are some of your expectations as you prepare for your first state tournament?
"I would just really like to place. Coming in I didn't really expect to do as well as I am doing, but I would like to place. I would like to win but if not I would still like to place."
What did you expect coming into this season?
"I didn't set the bar too high and wanted to place at counties but I came in first and it kept going and I came in first at regionals and now the bar is kind of high for next year."
Do you notice a difference in varsity versus junior varsity contention and if so, what is that?
"In junior varsity the matches aren't really as big, there's no spotlight. For varsity, they put the spotlight down and there's more pressure on you."
What was more exciting for you and why, winning counties or winning regionals?
"Regionals for sure because it was way bigger and I liked it. There were so many more people and the crowd was bigger and it was also a close win so that made it more exciting."
Who is the funniest guy on your team and why?
"Jamar [Williams], he's always funny, always in a good mood and lifts our spirits when we're down, he's hilarious."
