Wilson, a junior running back, was named the Most Valuable Player of the 118th Radnor-Lower Merion football game, which the Red Raiders won, 34-0, Nov. 8. He scored two touchdowns, one of them on a 66 yard punt return. He carried the ball seven times for 45 yards, and caught two passes for 14 yards. An All-Main Line lacrosse selection last spring, Wilson has verbally committed to the University of Maryland to play lacrosse.

Q: What play from Saturday’s Radnor-Lower Merion game is most memorable to you – can you tell us a little about that play, and your role in it?

A: The most memorable play in the game would have to be the [66 yard] punt return. The wall was set up perfectly and everyone put a body on a LM jersey. I just took the ball off the bounce and followed my blockers.

Q: Who is your favorite football player? Is there a player whose game you try to pattern your own after?

A: LeSean McCoy, no doubt. What I try to take from his game is his explosiveness and the way he can change the momentum of game with in seconds.

Q: You’re also the kicker for the Radnor football team. Can you share with us how that got started?

A: I’ve actually been a soccer player my whole life, all the way up to eighth grade. When the coach asked if anyone could kick, I simply raised my hand and got the job.

Q: Who have been your top football mentors, and what has been the most important thing each of them taught you?

A: The whole coaching staff at Radnor. The most important thing they have taught me is that nothing is given to you and that you have to go out and take it.

Q: You’ve made a verbal commitment to the University of Maryland to play lacrosse. What attracted you to Maryland? What do you think you’d like to major in? Is there a career path that currently interests you?

A: I have not yet decided what I will major in yet, but I am leaning towards engineering or business. What attracted me to Maryland were the beautiful campus, great coaching staff, excellent academics and a great lacrosse program.
