Q&A with Rome quarterback Reece Fountain
How has everything with the football season been going so far?
“Everything is going well right now. We are playing good football!”
Have you been pleased with how you have played this season?
“Yes sir. We have a new OC. We had a new offense to learn but it's a great offense. Fits me and the other guys perfectly.”
How do you feel your team has played?
“We didn't play like we know we can against Collins Hill. We were all very disappointed in that game. We bounced back and beat Carrollton though in a huge region game 45-27.”
What do you feel your team can improve on?
“Just being more consistent every day with all the little things in all 3 phases.”
What are the keys for your team being successful going forward?
“I think the key for us in the playoffs will be to continue playing smart football and getting after it every day like we do even in practice.”
