Q&A with Ike Whitaker

TSL: Congratulations on a terrific senior season. How was the feeling of winning a state championship?

Ike Whitaker: It was great. The whole season was great. Winning the championship was just crazy. It was like no other feeling I’ve ever had. I was happy that our hard work paid off. We fell short the last two years, so I was happy for all of my teammates and happy for Coach Trivers.
