Thank you to Coach Shane Gaines @CoachGaines_1 and @MerrimackFB for the invitation to the Top 200 Football Showcase on December 19th! Grateful for the opportunity to compete, showcase my skills, and continue building connections at the next level! 🏈💪 #ClassOf2029 #RB #Recruitment #GoWarriors

McKernan leading the headline. Sparta leading on the scoreboard. 2 TDs. One big team win. Just getting started. 🏈 #SpartaFootball #ClassOf2029 #RB nj.com/highschoolsports/2026…

First one was a milestone. Second one was a message. 2️⃣ TDs tonight. Get used to seeing #30 in the end zone. 😤 #AGTG @coachmarsh_78

30 was always the number. 😤 Wore it my entire youth career. Freshman year had me bouncing between numbers… but sophomore year, varsity jersey in hand, and 30 is back where it belongs. Different level. Same number. Bigger goals. Back in 30. Let’s work. 🏈⚔️ #30 #Spartans #ClassOf2029 #VarsityFootball

Proud to be one of 8 new varsity players this season as a sophomore. Earning the opportunity is only half the battle. Now comes the harder part — proving every day that I belong here and putting in the work to stay here. Grateful for the opportunity. Proud of the progress. Now it’s time to work. 💪🏈 #SpartaFootball #GoSpartans #EarnedNotGiven #ClassOf2029 tapinto.net/towns/sparta/sec…

Honored to be invited to another O-D All American Bowl!! Thank you @ODFootballCamps

Great experience competing at the @UNewHavenFB Elite Prospect Camp! Thank you to the entire coaching staff for the opportunity to showcase my skills and for the feedback throughout the evening.

Excited to keep working and continue building relationships! @Coach_JD1 @CoachRGhanim @CoachNickRemo @UNewHavenFB @Coach_Pow @CoachTMims @CoachJZamot @coachmarsh_78

Huge thank you to Coach Jordan Davis and the entire @UNewHavenFB staff for putting on an outstanding camp yesterday. I truly appreciated the opportunity to compete, learn, and experience what New Haven Football is all about. Also, a special shoutout to fellow Sparta High School football & baseball alum Coach Nick Remo. Thanks for taking the time to make the introduction—it was great reconnecting with another Spartan who’s now making an impact at the next level. @Coach_JD1 @CoachNickRemo Looking forward to staying in touch. 🔵⚪️🏈 #AGTG #NewHavenFootball #SpartaPride #ClassOf2029

Rutgers ✅ One camp down. Three more opportunities to compete. Next stops: 📍 Princeton – July 11 📍 Lehigh – July 22 📍 University of New Haven – July 24 Every rep matters. Every camp is a chance to improve, compete against top talent, and earn the next opportunity.

Freshman year. First varsity letter. This isn't just a patch. It's the result of early mornings, late nights, extra reps, and a commitment to be better every day. Grateful for my teammates, coaches, and everyone who has helped me get here. Earning a varsity letter as a freshman is an honor, but I'm far from satisfied. The goal was never just to make varsity. The goal is to keep growing, keep competing, and keep proving I belong. Just the beginning. #EarnedIt #VarsityLetter #ClassOf2029 #StudentAthlete #BuiltNotGiven #TrustTheProcess

Every rep matters. I’m not just putting in work for Friday nights under the lights at Sparta—I’m building toward Saturdays at the next level. Grateful for the opportunity to compete, learn, and showcase my skills against some of the best talent at Rutgers. The goal stays the same: keep improving, keep proving, and keep chasing the dream. @coachmarsh_78 @Rutgers @RFootball @jgsusanjr #AGTG #RutgersFootball #CHOPEliteCamp #ClassOf2029 #RunningBack #Recruiting #BuiltNotGiven #SpartaFootball

Just one of the skills I was able to put on display at Rutgers yesterday. Explosive. Physical. Reliable. The work is showing, and this is only the beginning. More clips coming soon. ⏳ #AGTG #RutgersFootball #RB #ClassOf2029 #BuiltNotBorn #Recruiting

2 days until Rutgers. The work is done. The preparation is done. Now it’s time to compete. Can’t wait to get on the field, show my skills, and make the most of this opportunity. Thank you Coach Joe Susan for the invite. #AGTG #RutgersFootball #B1G #ClassOf2029 #RB #BuiltDifferent #EarnedNotGiven
