MONTERIES TAYLOR- SENATOBIA HIGH SCHOOL

Tell everyone about yourself?
My name is Monteries Taylor and I'm in the 11th grade. I attend Senatobia High School and I'm from Senatobia, Mississippi. I love to run a lot and I also like to dance.

What was your best meet and time?
My best run was when I ran in division 2-4A and I beat the school record.  I ran 2:17.00 and the time that I had to beat was 2:19.00.

How do you make your team better?
I work hard in practice and I give 100% effort in to whatever I do.

Who is your favorite player? Why?
My favorite player as far as sports go is Kobe Bryant because he has the passion for the game, he loves the game, and most of all he doesn't settle for less.

Why are sports/education important to you?
Education is important to me because without education you have nothing. Education is very important now with the new generation coming up. Sports are important to me because I just love to stay in shape and compete.

What do you want to do when sports is all over?
I want to either be a choreographer or, if I work hard enough, I want to be a track star.

What advice can you give other student-athletes?
When you are competing, have good sportsmanship and respect for the other teams and individuals. Most of all just have fun and practice hard.

JAMES FARROW- MINNETONKA HIGH SCHOOL

Tell everyone about yourself?
I am a 6'0 DB from Minnetonka, Minnesota. I have 9 offers right now ranging from the SEC to the BIG TEN. I play smart and fast. I try to stay humble through these exciting times and have been very blessed to be in the position I'm in today.

What are your dreams in life?
My dream is to make it to the NFL. I'd like to also win a National Championship in college. Hopefully wherever I end up I can contribute to achieving that dream.

What was your best game?
My best game was against Hopkins. I had 3 tackles for losses from the corner spot, an interception, and a 91 yard KR touchdown of which I give all the credit to my blockers who consistently do the dirty work.

Why are sports/education important to you?
Sports are important to me because they teach me life lessons day in and day out. Sports bring out leadership as well as the role of being a part of a team. Education is important because it's power. You may lose everything one day but with a good attitude and a high level of education you will be able to create opportunities for yourself.

What can you do to make yourself better in your sport?
To make myself better at football I lift, run, sleep and eat well. The most important thing for me being a DB is footwork so that's something I really focus on. Also the mental aspect of the game.. being able to study a quarterbacks or a WR's bad habits and create situations to exploit them.

What is your dream college?
My dream college is wherever I sign with in February. Right now I'm pretty open and don't really have a standout favorite.

If a College Coach ask you, how can you make our team better, what would you say?
I'd tell him I can make the team better by leading by example, by working hard, and being passionate about the game. Hard work, hustle, and energy are all contagious and I feel that I bring those key things to each practice, lift, and game.

What advice can you give other student-athletes?
The recruiting process is exciting but make sure you put your High School teammates first.
