Braeden is super athletic for his size. He’s got experience making plays with the ball in his hands but he’s a great tackler and will be a force to be reckoned with at the point of attack. 

- Brant McAdams, PLU Head Coach
 
Great athlete who got it done on both sides of the ball. Braden brings great versatility to our defensive unit both in the box and in space.

- Ketner Kupp, PLU Linebacker Coach
