Graham K.

I am currently the Linebackers coach at Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Virginia, contributing to player development and weekly game planning.

Following a career ending injury at FCS level Lafayette College, I transitioned to a role as a Student Assistant Coach, working with both the offensive and defensive staffs.

I have also coached at the high school level, serving as the Offensive Line Coach at the Lawrenceville School in Lawrenceville, NJ and Sidwell Friends School in Washington, DC. In both roles, I was responsible for working with and developing the Offensive Line and contributing to game day play calling and weekly offensive game plan preparations.

I am a graduate of Lafayette College in Easton, PA where I was a member of the Division 1 FCS level football team as an offensive and defensive lineman before suffering a career-ending injury. I was an All Conference Offensive Lineman in high school at Cheshire Academy in Cheshire, CT.

Each session is designed to be high-energy, detail-oriented, and tailored to the athlete’s age, position and goals. I focus heavily on football-specific movement, technique development and building confidence through repetition and competition.

A typical session starts with a dynamic warm-up focused on mobility, movement prep, footwork, and injury prevention. From there, we move into position-specific drills that emphasize fundamentals, athleticism and game-speed execution.

Depending on the athlete and position, sessions may include:

- Offensive Line, Defensive Line or Linebacker technique (hand placement, leverage, stance/start, footwork, pass sets, block destruction, tackling, pass coverage)
- Speed and agility work
- Change-of-direction and reaction drills
- Explosive power and conditioning
- Position-specific movement mechanics
- Competitive drills that simulate real game situations

I coach with a strong emphasis on proper technique, effort, discipline and attention to detail. I want athletes to understand not just what they’re doing, but why they’re doing it. Every workout is structured to help athletes improve their performance on the field while also building confidence, toughness and football IQ.

My goal is for every athlete to leave a session having improved technically, competed at a high level,and developed habits that translate directly to game-day performance.
