Saquon Barkley Road to Super Bowl – Wnep Scranton/Wilkes -Barre

Philadelphia books for the White High School recordings were rewritten when a child born in Bronx made his effect on the bed of beds. Saken Barkley was announced as football at Pennsylvania in Class 3 and 4A in 2014. He held the White Hight school record for most career fast yards and was a large part of the team’s success to return to the regional championships. Barkley’s high school coach, Brian Gilbert, remembers that not everything is so easy for him at this age.

“He was not always the best player and was not always at a level, everyone probably thought he was when he was a younger one,” Gilbert said. “Everything that has done is through hard work. What Sakan does is that he takes something he would feel would be a weakness or something he had to work on in his athletic game and work on it until he felt it had mastered this skill for it, What we see today on the terrain on the sidelines of the Eagles, “said Gilbert.

Evgeny Gendo Lewis, a Wyoming Valley West product, graduated from Meyers High School, played with Barkley at Penn State and has kept in touch with him over the years. Lewis, a broad successor to Edmonton Elks in the Canadian Football League, knows what it takes to become a professional athlete and remembers that he saw him in Barkley when he arrived in Penn State

“You can just say, at the beginning, he had the ambition. He had this motivation, you know, to be the best,” Lewis said. “Especially as a freshman at the Penn State University … It was difficult to break … Then you really had to show the coaches. You had to show your teammates, you had to show everyone why you should really be out in this area, especially as A freshman, “Lewis said.

Barkley, made by New York Giants in 2018, has a year in his career in his first season, playing for the Eagles. Now ready to play on the biggest scene of football, Barkley lives next to the name of football at the Pennsylvania.

“I want to say, what story. Let’s get it back to Pennsylvania to get it back to the Eagles, I want to say that this city, the bed of beds, is generally simple- there is a buzz. We are super excited that he is Well, he is one- he is, he is, and he is one- he is, he is and he is very excited.

“It is a blessing to see such children, you know, to find yourself in the positions that they are now and I am so happy that he is in the Super Bowl, and everything that went with the giants. If he goes out there and wins a superbul, he is a legend forever in Pennsylvania, “Lewis said.

Will Barkley have enough influence on the field to help the eagles win over Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, or historically three peat?
