Eisenhower’s Carter Pabst-Athlete Spotlight-Presented by Eisenhower

By Matt Browning

Carter Pabst’s numbers were good last season – 893 receiving yards and 19 touchdowns and a first team all-league selection.

But the Eisenhower senior doesn’t just want to be good and that’s why his goals for the 2024 season, both individually and for the team, are elite.

“Some individual goals are 1,000-plus yards and 20-plus touchdowns and for the team I want to make it a step further and go take 5A state,” Pabst said. “I want to improve on my route running. I feel it’s good now but there’s always room for improvement. I did a lot of cone drills to help get out of my breaks and a lot of explosive workouts.”

The Tigers made it to the 5A semifinals last season before losing to Kapaun Mount Carmel. Pabst put in the work throughout the offseason so that his team can get another crack at getting to the final Saturday of the season.

“I have been training with Coach James Tabor with PIA Athletes and I went to the Lindenwood Mega Camp, K-State camp, and North Dakota camp,” Pabst said. “I want to have a successful season again and be a leader for all of the younger guys on the team to keep the success going in the program.”
