Q&A with Bishop Amat DE Andrew Vasquez
To know that Bishop Amat High School defensive end Andrew Vasquez was First-Team All-League as a junior in 2014 does not paint the full picture of the young man behind the facemask. Nor does the 65 total tackles, seven sacks, or safety he collected terrorizing Los Angeles area offenses helping the Lancers finish the season 9-4 after a run into the playoffs.
Andrew answering my silly questions may not help others learn much more but it cannot hurt to learn a little more about one of the rising stars in the Class of 2016 likes and dislikes off the field.
