Shane has been playing  quarterback since he was 6 and has a passion for football. He definitely aspires to play football in college. Shane has been unfortunate the last few years with injuries. During his 8th grade campaign he tore a tendon in his ankle while playing in the championship game. His freshman year he broke his middle finger on this throwing hand and this current season he fractured his elbow opening day during the 3rd quarter. The injury required surgery and it looked like he would be out for the season! Shane returned to play in the last game of the season. Against the odds and with many people telling him not to play he did. He led the 0-8 Vikings to their first victory 27-0. Shane reasoning is it was more about the team than me. If I could bring them together and compete, end the season on a high note, then we can ride that into next season.
