Being a leader is what the Andover Central Jaguars need and senior center back Andrew Clouse is ready to commit to that role.
As a three year starter Clouse knows what it takes to play against high level 6A competition.
“Andrew is a leader based on his tireless work ethic and demeanor. He is all business and very focused on our team’s goals,” Head coach Steven Huskey said. “He’s been asked to step up each year, and is the reason we’ve been able to hang in close games against top competition this year.”
Team oriented is exactly what a good leader needs to be and that is exactly what Clouse is.
“This year I want to be able to improve team chemistry through leadership. I believe this is a part of any team’s success which leads to our team having greater success come postseason,” Clouse said.
Clouse also talks about how during the off season he and the rest of the jaguars practiced three days a week in hope of winning their league title for the third year in a row.
Even though Clouse is all about the team he also has individual goals he wants to accomplish.
“A personal goal is to be First Team All-League this year. Another goal as an individual is I want to allow 12 or fewer goals this season. We have a very difficult schedule this season, but I believe these are achievable because of my strong defensive line and personal work ethic toward these goals,” Clouse said.
