 1,329 miles is quite a way from his hometown of Addison, Illinois, but that hasn’t stopped Carmen Messina from focusing on the one thing that he loves -- football. The game of football has come easy for Carmen ever since he can remember and now he gets the opportunity that so many kids dream of with the University of New Mexico. Besides his leading the nation in tackles per game, that seems to be the last thing on his mind. Winning and being a role model is what makes him tick. As Carmen told me "stats change weekly," this coming off an 11 tackle game in last weeks game against the University of Wyoming. |
