Luke McMillan is suiting up in his third football season with the Miles MacDonnel Buckeyes. Last year, in Luke’s first year of football he was named Special Teams Player of the year.
The highlight of last season for Luke was having his first multi-catch game and scoring his first touchdown.
Luke doesn’t have to look far for inspiration. Luke looks up to his Dad because he’s played university football at the University of Manitoba, and coaches at St. John’s High School.
Last summer Luke was a member of the U18 Team Manitoba at the Canada Cup.
Being at the Canada Cup gave Luke recruitment exposure and he learned what the process was all about. Luke’s recruitment process so far has been good.
Once Luke is finished at Miles MacDonnel his plans are to play U Sports football for any university. Luke’s first choice of a post-secondary school is the University of Manitoba, or to play Junior most likely for the Winnipeg Rifles.
To prepare himself for the football field, Luke does strength training on average 3 times a week and cardio at least once.
Luke will be focusing on his speed this year in order to be faster for the next level. “I will be focusing a lot on my speed because I know if I want to make it at the next level I will need to be much faster than I am,” explained McMillan.
In January Luke will be participating in a morning camp run by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers starting in January.
