Started playing more to his potential toward the end of the 2002 season and carried it over into the spring ... Got a lot of work with the first team during 2003 spring drills ... His progress should allow him to see more playing time this fall and give the Hokies a chance to rest starter Jake Grove more ...

Graded 88 percent in brief action against UCF ... Posted two knockdowns at West Virginia ... Saw action on a pair of offensive snaps in the win over Boston College and at Pittsburgh ... Was in for six plays on offense against Temple ... Continued to work at center during spring practice ...

2000: Worked at left guard while being redshirted in the fall ... Showed progress in the winter strength and conditioning program ... Got reps at center and guard in the spring ...

High School: Played practically every offensive line position during his varsity career at Montour ... Earned all-conference honors at guard his senior year ... Also saw action at tackle and had a brief stint at the center position ... Played both the left and right guard and tackle positions at one time or another for Coach Don Morgan, while earning three letters ... Saw limited action on defense, posting 69 tackles during his senior season ... Named the team's MVP as a junior after winning all-conference recognition on offense and defense ... Ranked the No. 25 prospect in Pennsylvania by SuperPrep ... Selected the No. 73 player in the East Region in Tom Lemming's Prep Football Report ...
