Christopher Burgess how was your freshmen season? Went well, accomplished one of my goals by playing the entire season on varsity. What does football mean to you? Football teaches you a lot about teamwork and unselfishness. Always support and play for your team. Football helps you gain strength in your lower body as well as the upper body. Guess it’s in my blood! What should college coaches know about you? I have athleticism, good Character and I’m super Competitive. I want to be a part of something special, not just another member of a team. Yes, being a college athlete is the dream but I know coaches want an athlete who has the desire to make a difference for their program and I’m working hard to be that. What do you feel is your strongest trait on the football field? Anticipation! I have really long arms (80in). Working really hard with my father to be more relentless. 80 inch wingspan What part of your game do you plan on working on in the offseason? Working on getting off the ball quicker being more disruptive in the backfield. I'm putting in 2 1/2 hours in the gym lifting and working on speed and agility. What do you like about playing on the line? I love everything about it. My Dad played DT in college and I truly believe it’s in my blood. This was my first year ever playing football and I’m working really hard to make up for lost time.
