“What separates Logan from other quarterbacks in the state is his ability to deliver the football and understanding of what defenses are trying to do to him. He can do it from the pocket or outside the pocket on the run. His eyes are always down field looking for receivers to come open or work open and if things break down, he can use his feet to escape the pocket and go run for the first down or a touchdown. You can see when he plays, he’s a three-sport athlete using all three sports to make him the quarterback he is. What people don’t get to see is the genuine, smart and caring kid he is. He always takes the time to make the little kids around feel special. Not only is he a great quarterback but also a great kid.”
