Central College Athletics

Junior
Homer Glenn, Illinois 

Why did you chose Central?

When I came here on my visits, I spent a lot of time with the guys on the team. It just seemed like an
environment I wanted to be a part of. When I was coming here I didn’t feel like I was leaving home,
just finding a new one.

Favorite professor and why?

Dr. Sodd is my favorite professor. I had her for acting last year and not only did she help me find a
passion for acting, but also really encouraged me to stay involved with it. Also, she is absolutely
hilarious and just fun to be around.

Who are your go-to musical artists ?

I’m typically into a lot of Punk and Metal music, so bands like Rise Against and Thy Art Is Murder, but
I’m also super into show-tunes and oldies so there is a lot of Frank Sinatra and Les Miserables in my
playlists as well.

You’re majoring in political science and economics because?
 
I’ve been interested in politics since I was a kid and a major part of politics is economic policy.

Dinosaurs or Dragons?

Dragons 100%. I’ve played Dungeons and Dragons since high school and dragons are way cooler.

What is your favorite joke?

So two fish are sitting in a tank. One fish turns to the other and says “I’m not complaining, but how
did you learn how to drive this thing?”

What’s the worst job you have ever had?

The summer before my freshman year I worked labor for a bricklaying company and the worksite was
very unsafe. I electrocuted myself multiple times and fell off a poorly constructed scaffold. I didn’t
like being concerned for my safety every day.

What’s the best Halloween costume you’ve ever had?

I was Elvis when I was like 4 years old and I looked amazing!

If you could live in a book, TV show, or movie, what would it be?

I would live in the world of Archer. Who doesn’t want to be a hilarious international super spy?

Would you rather lose your sense of taste or your sense of smell? Why?

My sense of smell is already practically non existent and I love food so I’d lose smell.

Favorite TV Show

Brooklyn 99 and Gravity Falls are my favorites right now.

What’s one thing people might not know about Coach Van Kley?

He is famous for some of his catchphrases. Some of these phrases include “If I had a garden hose.”
and “Just feel like a million bucks.”

What’s your favorite part about being a member of Central Wrestling?

I always have some people to go to if something goes wrong. There’s always someone who has my
back.

“Ten years from now I’ll...”

hopefully have paid off my student loans.

Favorite food from Central Market

Cook to Order Omelettes.

Bucket list

Before I die I want to participate in a professional wrestling show. It doesn’t have to be WWE or
anything, but I’ve loved pro-wrestling as a kid and would love to participate in one of the shows at
least once.
