Coach John O'Grady comments:
“Tom has been a very positive role model for all of our young
players. He has excelled in the classroom. He has relentlessly competed
for the QB position. His approach to academics, sports, and life has impacted
his teammates in a most positive way. Honestly, he has impacted my life
