The Oklahoma drill is famous for being extremely violent and brutal, it takes guts to willingly take and deliver hits, but somehow I thrived in that environment.

Being captain of my senior year was the biggest accomplishment I have ever made. Having the chance to stand front and center gave me chills each and every time.
