The Ursuline linebacker is 100-percent healthy
After being hampered by injuries last year, Darrell Mason hopes to actualize his potential in 2008.
He missed the next week, then was back in the lineup.
A few weeks later, he tore the meniscus in his right knee. He missed three games, then was back in the lineup.
He finished the season with 1,200 yards rushing and 21 touchdowns and was an all-league performer at defensive back, helping the Irish to the Division V state championship game.
Still, it wasn?t the season people were expecting when he entered the season as one of the state?s top junior prospects.
Considering he was playing at 75 percent of his ability, it was still pretty darn good.
?I kept getting questions about Darrell, about how he didn?t seem like himself,? said Reardon. ?But he scored 21 touchdowns.
?I think that?s a pretty good year.?
After playing part of the basketball season, Mason said he finally felt 100 percent around February.
He enters this fall healthy, heavier (in a good way) and hoping to lead Ursuline back to the state final as a senior.
?I feel much, much better,? said Mason, who stands 6-1 and weighs 225. ?I feel quicker, more explosive. It?s just a much better feeling.?
