Buhler’s Brendan Scripsick knew that as a senior, it is finally his turn to step up and be the leader he’s been preparing to be for the last four years.
“A weakness I focused on improving was consistency with my throwing and being on time with my receivers, also making sure everyone in the offense is on the same page and being a leader that some of the younger guys can look up to,” Scripsick said.
Like most athletes, Scripsick spent his time off pushing himself to be the best athlete he could be, not only for himself but for his team as well.
“Preparing for the season was a lot of weightlifting camps and working on some of the smaller fundamentals trying to perfect them along with getting as many reps throwing and running the offenses I could,” Scripsick said.
Along with the work he’s been putting in over the offseason, Scripsick also has a list of aspirations he hopes to accomplish as well.
“One of my biggest goals is to try to eliminate turnovers on offense and be efficient on the field keeping the ball moving and get in the end zone,” Scripsick said. “Our first goal is to win the league and our second is always to win state.”
With the future still up in the air, Scripsick is undecided on whether he wants to continue his athletic journey.
“I do not plan to attend college next year to go to school for sure but I have not yet decided if I want to play football or not,” Scripsick said. “Hopefully this season will be successful and help with my decision.”
