Spotlight on Seniors

Dan Kahle Defensive Tackle

— What position do you play? Tackle.

Where are you from? Well, I have lived here a while, but I'm from Kansas. I lived there for 12 years.

How many years have you played football at Pea Ridge? I played ninth and 10th, then this year.

They just convinced me to come back, they needed big guys on the line.

Do you have any plans after high school? I want to be a firefighter, go to NWACC, it takes two years.

I'll probably stay around here.

What are you doing when you aren't playing football? Racing four-wheelers. It's in Noel, Mo. In a big race there's eight to 10 others, in a small race there's four or five.

Have you wrecked a lot? Oh, yeah.

What's your worst crash you've had? Well, I don't remember it - I came up on a jump and started to flip. I got a concussion, just remember I woke up in the ambulance. My mom wasn't there, I went home and said "Hey, guess what happened?"

Did she try to make you quit? She tried to ... but I didn't listen.

If you were a car, what kind would you be and why? A lifted diesel truck, I love big trucks. Definitely a Chevy.

Do you have any predictions for the game at Greenland Friday? I think we'll do good, last week we were not on our game. We need to work on getting the plays down and getting our heads in the game.
