Why did you choose the school? “I chose Denver because I felt comfortable there. After meeting some of the players and spending time with the coaches I knew this was a program I wanted to be a part of. I am looking forward to being able to play under such a great coaching staff.”

Thoughts on this past HS season/Team’s outlook for next season: “This past season I achieved all of the goals that I had set for myself individually at the beginning of the year. As a team, Butler turned a lot of heads this year locally after making the state playoffs for the first time in school history. Next season I will be playing for The McCallie School and I am looking forward to contributing to a great team and program.”

Thank You: “I would like to thank Coach Tim Price and Pete Pittroff for guiding and coaching me through the recruiting process.”
