Elias has been playing football since he was seven years old and has had a deep love for the game ever since. He began with the City of Florence rec league, where he was selected for the All-Star team every year. His teams reached the championship game every season, and Elias consistently stepped up as a key contributor.

On the field, Elias is known for his discipline, leadership, and relentless work ethic. Off the field, he’s just as focused. He’s currently enrolled in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, one of the most challenging academic tracks available, and he plans to pursue a career in engineering. His goals include playing Division I college football and one day making it to the NFL.

Elias is a well-rounded student-athlete—driven, coachable, and committed to excellence in everything he does. Whether it’s hitting the books or putting in extra reps, he leads by example and gives 100% every time.
