per Reusse:
Mike McKay was Epping’s offensive coach at Tremper. He’s now the coach at Indian Trail, a newer high school in Kenosha.
“Zac was a quiet, respectful young man off the field … a nasty kid when the ball was snapped,” McKay said. “By that, I mean that he always played to the whistle.”
Clearly, there’s no greater compliment a coach can offer an offensive lineman than “playing to the whistle.” As far as playing past the whistle, how many big march-offs this season, Zac?
“None,” he said.
Not an unsportsmanlike, or even a hold?
“No,” Epping said. “I had one penalty … a false start. It was a bad call.”
