How did the high school football season go overall?
“I felt our season overall was a success. Although we fell short in the end, we grew substantially as a team and learned to work with more cohesiveness.”

“My off-season will consist of training with my football and track coaches as well as my two personal trainers. I intend on competing in several elite camps. My ultimate goal is to be bigger, faster, and stronger for next season.”

How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“We were a young team last year so many of our key players are returning. I feel like we're battle-tested, and we will be a real problem come next season.”

“Being that the classification changed and I'm not as familiar with the new lineup, I will have to prepare for every opponent as if they are the best.”

“Having a lot of highly-ranked players on our team, I think our best competition will come out of our own locker room. We practice hard and push each other daily.”

“Yes. I definitely intend on playing college football. I've always loved the University of Kentucky and enjoyed camping and learning about its rich history when I was in the 8th grade. A scholarship opportunity from them would be great. Getting older and visiting more schools has opened my eyes. Miami of Ohio, Middle Tennessee, Mercer, and Alabama A&M had great environments I enjoyed thoroughly. So I am not partial to any one school at this time.

How did the high school football season go overall?
“Overall it was a good year. We play probably the toughest schedule in America and don’t shy away from playing anyone. Our non-region games were against Westlake, Buford, Marietta and NS Warner Robins. That set us up for a great run in the region. We were disappointed with our first round playoff exit but it’s tough to compete in 7-A with 8 starters out. But we didn’t use that as an excuse and just competed.”

What are your plans now with sports and workouts?
“We are all in year-round weight training classes. We never stop. We’ve got the top strength program in the state, no doubt. I just focus on getting stronger and continue to work on speed and agility. I’m also on the Football Leadership Council and we work every week on becoming better leaders.”

“We always have high expectations so we’re always working to get better. We have a talented group of skill players returning along with our QB.

“Bear McWhorter at Cass has proven he’s a tough player. Jake Ellis is another one they have. Those two may be the toughest two we see next year.”

Do you want to play sports in college? If so, which one?
“I do want to play college sports. I’m being recruited in football and baseball at the Power Five level. As a sophomore it’s hard for me to decide on one right now. I love playing both and have been playing both since I was 5 years old.”

What colleges have been recruiting you?
“Kennesaw State has offered baseball. I can’t really talk to baseball coaches until August 1 of my Jr year since the new rule change but there have been several who come watch me play and I’ve been invited to camps and visits. Football wise, when coaches come to campus for a visit, I’m usually called in so they can meet me but I don’t have an offer yet. I think this spring will be huge.”

Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“Navy. My uncle coached football at Navy for 16 years. I thought I was supposed to be a Navy fan. But growing up in Georgia, I’m a Georgia fan and a huge Coach Smart fan. My Dad and uncle know Coach Smart from his days in Bainbridge. My grandfather coached football for 43 years and he and Coach Smart's Dad are friends. I also like Florida State because of how close it is to my grandparents’ home.”

How did the high school football season go overall?
“Overall the season didn’t go as planned or how we wanted it to go. We had a big loss in leadership with Antwon passing during the summer that I don’t think we completely shook back from until the end of the season but allowed us to grow closer.”

What are your plans now with sports and workouts?
“I plan on just getting back in the weight room, and going to camps to continue to grow my game and learn more techniques and drills I can apply to in-game situations.”

How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“I feel that we’ll be way better and should look like a different team next year. I mean we lost a couple of guys but we are still keeping a large portion of the team. I think we were just a young team but now that everyone’s played we’re good to go.”

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
“Bowdon are two-time state champs and Bremen beat us last year so both will be great challenges for us moving forward.”

How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“I feel that we’ll be way better and should look like a different team next year. I mean we lost a couple of guys but we are still keeping a large portion of the team. I think we were just a young team but now that everyone’s played we’re good to go.”

“I think Kaiden Prothro from Bowdon is a pretty good player and one that will challenge us.”

Q&A with North Cobb wide receiver Steele Ingram
How did the high school football season go overall?
“Overall it was a good year. We play probably the toughest schedule in America and don’t shy away from playing anyone. Our non-region games were against Westlake, Buford, Marietta and NS Warner Robins. That set us up for a great run in the region. We were disappointed with our first round playoff exit but it’s tough to compete in 7-A with 8 starters out. But we didn’t use that as an excuse and just competed.”

What are your plans now with sports and workouts?
“We are all in year-round weight training classes. We never stop. We’ve got the top strength program in the state, no doubt. I just focus on getting stronger and continue to work on speed and agility. I’m also on the Football Leadership Council and we work every week on becoming better leaders.”

How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“We always have high expectations so we’re always working to get better. We have a talented group of skill players returning along with our QB. Our OL is always as good as you’ll find and we have experience coming back there too. Defensively, our front will be very good and we have athletes in the secondary.”

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
“We are loaded with playoff teams on our schedule. It’s hard to pick just one. We always get everyone’s best. I’m looking forward to going to Walton and getting our region championship trophy. It belongs to North Cobb.”

Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
“Bear McWhorter at Cass has proven he’s a tough player. Jake Ellis is another one they have. Those two may be the toughest two we see next year.”
