Coaches Comments

Chris was a four-year starter within the football program at Wellsboro. It was an honor to coach Chris and see the development of a boy into a young adult throughout four years playing football. Prior to the 2007 season, Chris was selected as a pre-season player to watch in the NTL. As the 2007 season progressed, Chris became increasingly intense. Throughout the season, Chris accumulated 39 solo tackles, 12 assists, 2 caused fumbles, 1 fumble recovery, and 7.5 sacks. Along with Chris' ability to play the game was an outstanding attitude. As a coach it was always nice to hear Chris make a joke or lighten the situation at key times. Chris has a great desire to succeed and always played the best he could. Chris became a fine football player over the four years in the program. My most vivid memory of Chris took place at Towanda after he received a concussion late in the game. While asking Chris simple questions and getting no clear response, it was determined he would not be able to play again in that game. It was at that stage in his career that Chris realized what football was all about and from that day forward Chris became intense and played the best he could each and every play. Good luck in all that you do in the future and thank you for a great career at Wellsboro!
