Personal: Born: February 23, 1985. Favorite TV show – Jamie Foxx/Martin. Favorite sport growing up – football/basketball. Greatest moment in sports – scoring a game-winning TD in the conference championship. Toughest AFL team you’ve faced so far – Spokane. It is a great place to play and very difficult because of fan support.
