HEAD COACH MARK BONIS
"Karl is just an extreme competitor in everything he does. From the classroom to the football field, he wants to win, and really stands for everything our school is all about."
"Karl is a very athletic guy. He's gotten bigger and better every year. He's made such an impact here that opponents very rarely came at him this season. He was just dominant.
"What's truly refreshing about Karl is what a grounded and mature guy he is. He's a leader, a guy that's going to work his tail off. Karl is one of those guys that has a tremendous work ethic, but also knows how to have fun while he's doing it."
