Playing in the PIL was a big enjoyment for me as a four year varsity player. My coach Mike Clopton taught me the value of hard work and commitment. The players that I played with were outstanding guys. Coach Clopton was a fantastic guy and helped me stay in the game and excel to the best of my ability. I thank the PIL for all of the fantastic memories. Hats off too all the inductees. Thanks for the memories.
