By Hayden Swope

 Sterling’s Wyatt Newberry had a very memorable sophomore season, where he ended the year as a second team allleague piece to the Black Bears’ secondary. Newberry is thankful that all the time and effort he’s putting into the game is working.

 “It’s pretty cool to be recognized and I am really appreciative that my hard work is paying off,” Newberry said.

To prepare for the upcoming season, you could find Newberry on and off the field training his brain and his body.

“I’ve been lifting this summer and have watched some film from past seasons just trying to find mistakes that I can correct,” Newberry said.

 Newberry is hopeful for the team’s future, and is hoping to make some memories along the way.

 “I want to go deeper into the playoffs and I think this team is capable of doing that,” Newberry said. “I also really like our team and want to have fun along the way.”

 While keeping an open mind about the upcoming season, Newberry still remembers the game that brought everyone together.

“Winning our first playoff game in quite some time last season was pretty awesome,” Newberry said. “I like to think about that game a lot.”

 The Sterling junior has a long road ahead of him and is ready for whatever the future may hold.

 “I don’t really have my future planned out yet I am just waiting to see what the Lord has in store for me,” Newberry said.
