Comments from Head Coach, Josh Smith

What are his strengths?

Daniel strengths are his speed, acceleration, and his ability to change direction quickly. He has great hands and can even throw the ball.

What was the most amazing thing you’ve seen him do?
In our district semi-final game against Shade, Daniel made great catch over the back of the defensive player for a touchdown. A close second would have been his 69 yard interception return for a touchdown against Moshannon Valley.

What are you expecting from him this year?
We are expecting Daniel to continue to improve on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. He again will be a very important part of our offense and defense. We expect to Daniel to continue to be a leader for our team.
