Q&A with Milton athlete Marc Essley
How has everything with the football season been going so far?
“Everything so far has been going good, my team and I have had ups and downs but that’s a part of the process. We’re striving to get better every day for the real season and I feel like this team will accomplish a lot going into the remaining games we have.”
Have you been pleased with how you have played this season?
“I’ve been playing well but not good enough. In my opinion I’ve done what I needed to do for the team when they needed it but I feel as if I can be more electric and make a little bit more plays.”
How do you feel your team has played?
“The team has played great, there are things we can fix and things that we have fixed, we push each other to be the best we can be every day so I think we’ll accomplish a lot moving forward.”
What do you feel your team can improve on?
“The team can improve on just playing together. It’s a new team so we’re learning to have our brothers’ backs and not try and do another person’s job, do what you need to do and trust the man next to you to do what he needs to do.”
What are the keys for your team being successful going forward?
“See above.”
