South Sumner’s Mak Blosser has been putting in the extra work and training all summer long to prepare for the fall. As a freshman, Blosser was an honorable mention all-league offensive back.
“We have weights which is at seven in the morning where all the high school boys who want to show up to get better workout,” Blosser said. “Then we either go down to the track and run all sorts of cardio stations or go down to our practice field and work on football related drills. I haven’t missed a day so I’ve been mainly focused on putting muscle on growing and getting more strength.”
Along with the work he’s been putting in at home, Blosser also took on the field at surrounding camps to improve his game.
“As a team we went to camp which was held at Southwestern College for two days,” Blosser said. “We went there as a team and competed and it was a lot of fun to get to see what we were made of. My weaknesses I wanted to get better at were muscle and gaining weight and then my footwork. It’s come a long way and it still has a bunch of room for improvement but I’m continuing to get better with that daily.”
Only a sophomore, Blosser already has big goals for his future in this sport.
“I hope I can graduate and earn a scholarship from any team division one,” Blosser said. “I am just a 15-year-old kid who loves to play football so obviously my dream is to go play some professional football.”
