Jake Heilman, Sports Editor in Chief

Daniel Riser

OK White All-Conference

Grade: Senior

Position: Kicker/Punter

How does your role as a special teams player impact each game?

I set the tone at the beginning of the game with the opening kickoff.

What does it mean for FHC to have so many players recognized?

Here at FHC, we take a lot of pride in academics but also a lot of pride in athletics. It means a lot for so many athletes to be recognized.

What is your best memory from this season so far?

My favorite memory of this season was when we beat Lowell 35-6 on homecoming night.

What kind of things help your success and your focus in games?

Coach Rogers has really helped and played a big part in [being successful and focuses in game]. He doesn’t just treat me like a kicker, but like everyone else on the team.

How important is your role this coming Saturday against Livonia Franklin?

My importance is just as, or more important than the games earlier in the season. I have to come in with the mindset that it might come down to me, and I will have to be ready.
