Athlete of the Week: Gabriel Angel

This week’s Athlete of the Week for October 21st- October 28th is Senior soccer player, Gabriel Angel. He has been playing soccer since the very young age of four years old. On the DHS Rams team he is mainly on defense, but where the team needs him most is midfield, where he says he “controls the game and settles the speed of play”. As always I got a little more information for a summary of our Athlete of the Week.

When is your birthday?

Angel’s Response:  I was born November 25th, 1993.

What is the best part of being on the team?

Angel’s Response: I enjoy being with the people I love and representing Dixon High School.

Who do you model your game after?

Angel’s Response: I don’t model my game after someone else. I look back at my last game and only try to be better than myself and no one else.

Who is your life role model?

Angel’s Response: My uncle Gerardo Preciado. He is funny, successful, and a great family person.
