Outstanding Athleticism

Mike spent most of his college career as a wide receiver.  He was a mainstay hot man on the kick-off team.  With Mike you have the speed and hands of a receiver, with the aggressiveness of a linebacker, all making him the total package that you want as the last line of defense between a return man and the end zone.   

 

Tremendous Character and Role Model

Mike was named to the AFCA Good Works team his senior year.  Former NFL All Pro Punter, Brian Hansen, has mentored Mike in many ways on and off the football field for several years. Mike is very active in the region, and is highly sought after as a speaker for FCA and youth events. Mike was named to the Sioux Falls Argus Leader Top 15 People Under 30 in South Dakota this past fall.  He currently teaches middle school, coaches football, as well as being the strength and conditioning coach and middle school Chaplain for Sioux Falls Christian High School.  He also plays and coaches baseball in the region.
