Wayne Lyons and SFE are Badger Sports 7 on 7 National Champions!!!

As a member of the South Florida Express 7 on 7 team, I was fortunate enough to be a part of a National Championship Team. We defeated Team 1925, a team out of California, coached by Keyshawn Johnson. With 15 seconds left and the ball on the goalline, I deflected a pass and sealed the victory for our team. What a great feeling! Everyone stepped up, played big and won the championship as a team.

Wayne Lyons Appears on ESPN First Take

50 Questions from Wayne Lyons: Interview on ESPN2 First Take.

With my mom and I having many questions, we got an idea from Coach Charlie Partridge of Wisconsin, to send out the questions via email to all the colleges that offered me scholarships. Never did I imagine that things would blow up the way they have. We were simply trying to find the easiest way to ask all of our questions and remember how each school replied. Now the idea has spread nationally. I'm appreciative to each school that has returned the questions. The questions are only one facet as to how I will decide the college of my choice.

Wayne Lyons named Old Spice Red Zone Player of the Year

I am proud to announce that I have been selected one of 50 "Old Spice Red Zone Players of the Year." This is truly an honor. Click on the title link above to see the announcement on MaxPreps.

How do you feel:

Inside the goal line with my back against the wall my survival instincts kick in. At that point I no longer feel any fatigue nor do I feel any pain. It is as if I turn into a crazy wrecking machine because my body turns numb and I no longer feel anything. I get the anger rage of a man ready to kill and nothing in the world could calm me down. All of my focus is then channeled to the running back or fullback depending on who I'm assigned to and also all of my pre play reads. Once the ball is snapped I tae my read and react at 100 mph.

How you elevate your team:

Inside the Red Zone I have a unique way of motivating my teammates. First before the play begins I make sure that they are mentally ready for the play to begin. I do that by jumping through the huddle, screaming and yelling like a mad man to get everyone's adrenaline pumping. I also dish out a couple of strikes to the defensive lines helmets to make sure that they are in battle mode. Once the play takes off is where I get really good at motivating. I am usually called on a blitz in the red zone and I charge the backfield and blast the ball carrier in the back field. Once the team hear the collision in the backfield and see me getting up off the top the intensity automatically rises. At that point the entire defense is motivated and ready to do what I just did.
