"Obviously, Talon Fisher possesses all of the physical attributes we
look for as football coaches. He is big, long, athletic, strong and he
plays with a high motor," says his varsity coach Jason Krause.
Talon also competed in one year of track for the Indians.
A good student who is active in community service, he has committed to
play football next season at the United States Naval Academy. His
favorite athlete is Johnny Manzell, favorite entertainer is Adam
Sandler, favorite book is Power, favorite movie is Air and
most-like-to-meet is Michael Jordan.
COACH'S QUOTE – "Over the last four years, I have watched this
young man represent the Fairfield football program as the perfect
ambassador. He is conscientious in the classroom and in the hallways.
He is dominant in the weight room and the playing field. He has
handled all of his success with grace and humility. In short, Talon
Fisher is who we all want our players to be, in fact, Talon Fisher is
who we all want our sons to be."
— Jason Krause, Varsity Football Coach
