Spotlight player of the day, Zi’Meriyon “Tank” Andrews.

POWER! QUICKNESS! PHYSICALITY! Those are the words that come to mind when people talk about rising junior “Tank”. Hard runner that loves the game and will always give you 100% on the field also. Hard hitting LB that has a fill for the ball also! Be on the lookout for him this season as a major player for Tarboro!
