It's definitely going to be a challenge. I'm going to miss my family, friends ... the west coast. The community in general. The coaches, teachers, family, they make it home for me. Moving away from all these people, I'm going to miss that a lot. But I'm going to broaden my horizons, it's going to be good for me.

In my head and my heart I knew I wanted to go there. I felt I should give it some time. I think I have. Now I think I can be successful there.

Napa football has a lot of tradition. There's a huge amount of respect for teammates, opponents, coaches, teachers. That will carry over. (Dunlap) has taught us so much. All of the coaches. The respect, the discipline. They teach us to push yourself and test your limits and not be afraid of stepping up and trying new things or making mistakes. That's definitely going to carry over.
