Trevis Leiser is a Senior here at Mountain Crest. He is on the football and basketball team both starting Varsity. Trevis has been playing here at Mountain Crest as a Freshman. He is battling out for first-team all-state in 4A football, he leads the state in tackles and tied for first with 2 pick-sixes.

Trevis said, ” I get my motivation from mine/team’s losses and not everything going the way he wants. You play to win the game. You don’t play just to play it. That’s the great thing about sports. You play to win. And I don’t care if you don’t have any wins, you go play to win. When you start telling me it doesn’t matter, then quit. Get out. ‘Cuz it matters!” Trevis is really secure on team play, you have to play as a team to succeed. Throughout his years of football, Trevis is known not only as a great athlete but as someone who could be counted on to be a lot of fun.

The saddest moment in his life was when trevis and the football team lost in the Semifinals. Trevis said ” The most down I’ve been in my life is when my team lost in the Semifinals, football is like life it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication, and respect for authority. And sometimes that doesn’t pay out. The football game was full of errors. The team that makes the fewest errors in a game usually wins. We were on the side of more errors.”

Trevis said, “My biggest influence is most definitely my mother, she is always working at a hundred and is doing the absolute best she can. She is just the greatest blessing to me. No matter the problems you may be going through, just push through it.”

One of the greater things Trevis said was, “The most valuable player is the one who makes the most players valuable. To do things you’ve never done before, you have to do things you’ve never done before, winners never quit and quitters never win so please set your goals high, and don’t stop till you get there. I gave it my all, set my standers high, and worked my butt off and we were so close.”

After high school, Trevis plans on serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Then plans on making “Bands” working for his football Coach Nick Ellison. And to have a wonderful family.
