Wingspan: How long have you been playing football and what got you started?

Miller: “I started playing flag football in second grade, and my dad was a football player, I’ve always loved watching it and I always had a Nerf or foam or plastic football in my hand.”

Wingspan: What position do you play?

Miller: “Quarterback.”

Wingspan: When did you realize that football was the sport for you?

Wingspan: What is something that motivates you?

Miller: “My motivation is to play and win for God, my family, my teammates, and I want to play in college and hopefully beyond that so I always try to play my best so I have a shot in the future.”

Wingspan: Why was summer training important for this upcoming season?

Miller: “This summer was really important for this season because we did strength and conditioning and I did workouts in the weight room on my own throwing the football and practicing my footwork and stuff we don’t get a chance to work on in practice so I was able to get stronger and faster and improve my skills at quarterback.”

Wingspan: What is your favorite part about your sport?

Miller: “My favorite part about football is the competition. It’s extremely violent and we’re allowed to play really hard and show mental and physical toughness. And it’s really fun to play.”

Wingspan: What is something that you want to improve on?

Miller: “I want to improve on accuracy/placement and arm strength as well as pocket presence and being able to feel pressure and escape to make plays with my arm or with my feet.”

Wingspan: What are you expecting from this season?

Miller: “I’m really expecting to win these last 3 games. I’m focused on this week against Heritage right now, but I just want to win at this point. I want to go out and make plays with my team and win some of these last games because this year hasn’t gone the way we’ve wanted it to.”
