I’m a part of Flag Star because…

Who was your childhood sports hero:

Joe Flacco

Who was your favorite youth coach and what did he/she teach you:

Coach Alex Vergara, my wrestling coach, was my favorite youth coach, he taught me the values of capacity, as well as perseverance.

Who’s the best friend you made through sports:

Joe Cobb

What’s your most cringe-worthy sports moment / biggest failure:

About 2 years ago I was playing quarterback in a Flagstar game. I was being blitzed hard and had just taken a sack the previous play to push the team back onto our goal line. On second down I am blitzed hard and in a panic throw the ball out the back of the endzone. I might be the only person in the history of Flagstar to throw a safety.

What are your off-field interests/hobbies:

Video Games. I play a lot of video games.

What’s your favorite quote:
