As a cornerback, Lucas Knight knows that the most important stats for his position are pass deflections, interceptions and defensive touchdowns. One of the things he would like to achieve in his career is to try to break the NSFL interceptions and defensive touchdowns records. Of course, that's not an easy task to accomplish when you have to surpass one of the best that has ever been in the league: Dermot Lavelle. He has both of the current career records with 57 interceptions and 10 touchdowns. If Knight wants to come close to breaking these numbers, it would require a great effort starting from now, probably involving seasons with 8+ interceptions with 1 or 2 of them returned for a score. We asked Lucas how he feels about this topic and here is his response:
“Every player dreams to be on the top list for stats and be remembered for a solid career. I know I have high hopes for being among the best DBs of the league but I understand that in order to reach that place I have to play better; obviously my first goal is always to help my team and I'll be very happy that in doing so I can break one of those records. Truth is, I had a rough start in the interceptions department during my first 2 seasons, but that doesn't discourage me from keeping on the dream about seeing myself in the top 10. As of today, I think I got a shot for the Outlaws interceptions and defensive touchdown records; I would be very proud of my performance with this team if I at least can break these ones”.
