After breaking his wrist during the first game of the season in 2023 and missing most of the year, Belle Plaine’s Tanner Bolster returns with a different focus.
“One area I wanted to improve on this year was my mindset,” Bolster said. “Always staying prepared and focused and working out with the team.”
Bolster, who plays tight end and linebacker, started his comeback in the offseason working out with coach Michael Fox.
“I felt his workouts prepared me to be more successful strength-wise and durable for the upcoming season,” Bolster said.
After a two-win 2023 season, Bolster is ready to help show a different side of Belle Plaine football.
“I’m most excited to be able to show off all the hard work the team has put in over the summer and making great memories with our new coaches,” Bolster said.
Personal goals are not the only form of motivation for this junior.
“Some goals I have this season is to make it through without injury and make sure everyone can be successful. As a team I want to be able to have a better winning record and make our school standout,” Bolster said
