Austin McBroom and his football days in high school
Austin McBroom also featured on an episode of "High School Spotlight" from FSN and gave an interview to Courtney Jones when he was at Campbell Hall.
McBroom talked about his love for football and said-
"I enjoy wanting the ball. I enjoy catching the ball, I enjoy just having a blast with the teammates on the field and off the field, just the whole load of the game."
He also talked about playing for the Vikings state football team and revealed how he felt during his first game-
"It was one of my first football games, so I was more excited than anxious. SO, I just couldn't wait to get out there on the field and do well. We've been practicing for the whole summer so it's good to go out there and play somebody instead of your own teammates."
