PREPARATION AND BROTHERHOOD: YOU WERE MADE FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS HENRY BRODNAX.
By Samantha DePriest
Most days you will find Trinity Lions starting Quarterback Henry Brodnax on the field and in the weight room with his teammates when he’s not studying for school or serving with BETA Club, National Honor Society, and Fellowship of Christian Athletes. He is committed to putting in the time and dedication necessary to help his Lions achieve greatness on the field once again.
Henry came to Trinity in 5th grade and was already familiar with TCS because his older sister, Sara, had come in her 5th grade year 4 years prior. Back then, Trinity didn’t yet offer 5th grade football and couldn’t wait until he was in the 6th grade to play school sports. He immediately joined both the football and baseball teams and has been a multi-sport athlete ever since. He shared that they are both his favorite sports but he has set his sights on playing baseball in college and hopes of attending Troy University next Fall.
Four year starting Lions Quarterback David Dallas is settling in as a Freshman at Georgia Southern and has been mentoring Henry since the 8th grade. Henry shared that Offensive Coordinator, Lance Duncan, and Quarterback Coach, Ryan Duncan have been instrumental to his success on the field as well. Henry’s favorite part about Trinity football is the love of each other. He is optimistic about the season and excited for the upcoming season.
Preparation:Brotherhood
“Our teammates will do anything for one another. We are truly brothers and no matter what grade our boys are in, everyone is equal and respected on the team.”
Henry embraces his role as a student leader at Trinity and wants our little Lions to know that “You don’t have to be the biggest, strongest, or most gifted one on the team. You just have to work hard at what you want and put the time and dedication in. To all the young athletes out there, don’t ever forget that you can do anything you put your mind to.”
We believe in you Henry and can’t wait to cheer on our Lions next Friday, August 5th at 7:30pm in a scrimmage in the Lion’s Den at TCS.
