Mason Gillion was always on the field making plays. Never took a play off, was always the best defensive back on the field. His first game in the DSFL he recovered one tackle. He went from being the best defensive back on the field to 3rd string. This was his welcome the the league moment. His second game he had one tackle and one pass deflected.
Tijuana was 2-0 after his first two games but his lack of impact was eating away at him. He started studying more film and coming in early to practice and staying later.
His third game he had 3 tackles, 3 pass deflections and an int but Tijuana lost in OT.
His hard work in practiced paid off and he was bumped up to 2nd string DB in the nickel defense where he strived in college.
Finally in week 7 he was able to make the impact he was so accustomed to in high school and college. Late in the 3rd quarter with Tijuana up 16-14 he recorded his first pick six which ended up sealing the game in which they won 23-14. The win moved Tijuana into first place and in control of their destiny.
Coming into the DSFL he didnt realize the hard work he would need to do in order to make an impact. He has always done whatever he needed to do to help the team win and now he feels he is contributing to the team.
