Coaches Comments: Mike has been waiting for his opportunity behind some impressive RB’s at Northampton. He has been one of the most consistent players we’ve had over the past two season’s. Mike is extremely coachable and has a great work ethic. We think he is primed to have a break out season as an offensive threat. Defensively, he is aggressive to the ball and plays fearless. He’s been a starter since his sophomore season. Mike will be one of our leaders on and off the field for 2020.
