Q&A with Perrysburg linebacker Joseph Seney

How did/is everything going football wise as of late?
“Everything is going good football wise. I was able to come out and have a good season with my teammates and there is nothing I would rather do instead.”

What do you feel your team can continue to improve on going forward?
“What my team can improve upon this year is just development, we had a lot of young guys on the team. And because of this we had a lot of young guys come off the bench and that just starts to stack up. I feel as though next season we will be really good based off of our player development that we have had since the new coaching staff took over. We always find ways to develop, it’s just this year we were really young.”

What school is recruiting you the hardest?
“I haven’t been recruited that much, but if I were to say one it would be Yale. I received the camp invite both by email and from the head coach. I’ve also received a photo back on August 1st from the head coach as well.”

Have you made any college trips yet?
“I have gone to the camps over the summer, such as Yale, Harvard, UConn, and Navy. These were not official or unofficial visits but I did tour the campus on my own when I went.”
