Drake V.

Troy Thompson, Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Pace University (Testimonial)

I am writing this letter on the behalf of a close friend of mine Drake Voris. I have known Drake for seven years now, and the amount of growth that he has shown is tremendous and exemplifies somebody that truly loves to do what he does. Football has been Drake’s passion for as long as I have known him. We came in to Capital University together, both as offensive lineman. Drake was undersized for a tough position to play in the best Division III conference in the country, the Ohio Athletic Conference. While he did move to the defensive line later in his career, it was his tenacity and passion that gave Drake the ability to earn his time. Later in his career Drake faced some familial challenges that caused him to have to take a step away from football for a short period of time, at this time I was living with Drake and I know it was one of the hardest things he has ever had to do. Once his challenges had been resolved Drake was back to playing and back to fulfilling his passion. Drake did that with a high energy and high motor every day. Personally without Drake’s friendship and ability to be a great teammate, I am not sure I would have been able to be the player I was. Now where Drake has come as a coach is even more impressive. Drake has come from a guy who completed an internship as a coach to a guy that can handle his own position group. Again his rock in this career path is that football is his passion and it is the only thing he has ever wanted to do with his life. Because of this rock, he will do whatever is necessary to succeed in this career and be a great coach for his young athletes. I truly believe Drake will be a great addition to your coaching staff, because he will continue to do what it takes to be the best he can be at what he loves to do, and his ability to connect with the players is crucial to development. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Sincerely, Troy

Nicholas Bolyard, Assistant varsity football coach, Teays Valley High school (Testimonial)

It is a great pleasure for me to recommend Drake Voris. Coach Voris worked at Teays Valley East Middle School during the 2015 season, and was very active on Friday Nights in assisting our High School Staff. Coach Voris helped chart the defense, and assisted the defensive coaches on game day. His enthusiasm, attention to details, and his relentless work ethic make him a valuable asset to any coaching staff. I believe Coach Voris is a very good football coach, and can be of value to any student-athlete. Sincerely, Nicholas Bolyard
