Coach’s Comment: I have a unique perspective on JJ as I first coached him in eighth grade. He was a great player and leader at that time, but to see his maturity, passion for the game, and love for his teammates and the sport of football progress to where it is today is incredible.
JJ has a special place in my heart and will be forever etched into Berwick football history as a great player, teammate, and leader. JJ will be a 4-year starter for the Dawgs and has only scratched the surface on what he can achieve. I will always remember having to kick him out of the field house on February nights because he was in the back working his defensive line techniques at 8:00pm when he got there at 2:45.
