A football, baseball, basketball and soccer player at Roanoke Rapids, Trase Jones said it was by design that he explored so many routes to the field at North Carolina. "I was determined to find something I could do to get out there in games," he said. "I'd never held for kicks in my life, but that job sort of opened the door. Now, I've this chance to help with the kicking. It's more than I could have ever expected." (Charlotte Observer)
