Q: What is your favorite part of game night?

Q: What is your favorite football memory?

A: My favorite football memory is when I was in sixth grade, and it was the first pass play all year that I was thrown to when we played against the Lummi team, and I caught the ball, and the only thing that I heard was my mom scream. Scared me so much I almost dropped the ball.

Q: What is your favorite play to run on game night and why?

A: My favorite play would be any play that I can crack block a defensive player, 'cause the first thing I think is "Now you know how I feel every defensive play."

A: I prefer the Cougars, because, let's face it, they're beasts.

Q: Who is your favorite NFL player and why?

A: My favorite player would have to be Jerry Rice, because he is hands down the greatest player ever.
