THSF: “Last season you and your teammates finished with a (4-7) record. This season the team had great success by reaching the playoffs. What were the key factors to this teams success this season?” Malcolm: “Well we just practiced hard and played hard. Basically we just went out there and did everything the coaches told us to do.”  Andrews LB Malcolm Childress THSF: “This is your coaches (Coach McCoy) second full season here at Andrews, can you talk about him as a leader and a coach?” Malcolm: “Oh yeah, Coach McCoy, he’s a great coach. He always does what’s best for the team. He knows what can get the job done out there so we can do the best and succeed in the season.” THSF: “Your RB Tony Washington talked pretty highly about you in the beginning of the season stating that you’re a great competitor, you work harder than anyone, lift harder than anyone, practice harder than anyone, and that you are on a whole other level. How do these compliments make you feel?” Malcolm: “I wasn’t even expecting anything like that from anybody really, but I am very appreciative of it. THSF: “Coach McCoy compares you to Derrick Brooks from Tampa Bay for the reasons that you both can run, are small, play hard, and have a lot of intensity. Do you agree with him and if not who do you think your style resembles in the NFL.” Malcolm: “Yeah I could agree with him on that because I am kind of intense, you know I go after it no matter what so I could agree with him on that. THSF: “What was the feeling like when you beat your rival HP Central 23-16 this year?” Malcolm: “Oh that was a great feeling especially losing to them by one point last year. It was a great feeling just going out there and getting that back.” THSF: “Coach McCoy played linebacker in high school as well and had an enormous amount of intensity. Does he still bring that intensity to practice and the games?” Malcolm: “Oh yeah Coach McCoy even now comes out to practice and runs the plays his self and everything, comes out and shows how it is supposed to be done. So yeah he always has that intensity.“ THSF: You’re a great athlete and an inspiration for young kids out there, when you look back on it, who inspired you to be doing what you are today?” Malcolm: “Well my mother really inspired me because growing up I was a little small and everything but she always told me that I could always do what I wanted. I always wanted to play football so she made me get out there and do it.” THSF: “Is there anything you would like to say to all the Andrews fans out there?” Malcolm: “Thanks for all of your support. You guys are great.” |
