Dual Threat: Warrior quarterback Trey Lennon shows off his playmaking ability with a stiff-arm. He’s been at the heart of the team’s strong unbeaten showing early in the 2022 campaign.

The Dubs are off to a red hot 3-0 start this season, and it would not be possible without new stellar transfer quarterback Trey Lennon. Throughout the first three games, the Junior QB has displayed a tremendous dual threat ability, helping propel the Warriors to their offensive successes so far. With a win in game one, and a player of the game to accompany a win in game two, it is clear that number two in black and silver is already making his presence known on the field. 

The Dubs signal caller has made his transfer adjustment look quite easy so far. Lennon originally attended Carver High School, but transferred to North Atlanta in 2021. Coach James Aull and the rest of the Dubs coaching staff made North Atlanta an attractive destination for him. Lennon has made his athletic transition look effortless, but a transfer like his is extremely challenging, especially for a quarterback. It is essential that quarterbacks develop great chemistry with their teammates, as communication is such an important aspect of being a successful team offensively. Lennon had to jump head first into a completely new offense and team which he had no previous experience with. Luckily, he had already been in situations where he had to learn offenses quickly, but it still took him some time to settle in with the team and the system. “I had to study a lot and I worked really hard to develop a good bond with my teammates. It took some time, but we are family now,” said Lennon. 

Lennon plans to bring a new dimension to North Atlanta’s offense. With his powerful left-handed delivery and his blazing speed on the ground, Lennon brings a pioneering balance to the Warrior offense. His dual-threat skill set keeps defenses guessing. Number two’s skills also include an outstanding leadership ability, and it is already rubbing off Dub teammates. Senior football player Dean Burden said, “Trey has been one of the best leaders I have played with. He leads by example, knows the ins and outs of the game, and can constantly offer advice and direction in an uplifting manner. He just makes everyone better.” 

Lennon is also compelling young man off the field. When he is not going to work on the gridiron, he enjoys spending time with his friends and training. He likes to entertain himself by watching anime and listening to some of his favorite artists, many of whom are Atlanta based. Lennon says that he prioritizes his valuable rest and free time, but is also serious about his work ethic. He seeks to expands his football knowledge off the field by watching film of all time greats like Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. His biggest inspirations from the signal caller position, however, are other dual threat players like himself. “My biggest inspirations are Michael Vick and Cam Newton but I love to watch Peyton Manning and Tom Brady because of their mastery of the game and the ability that they have to out-think and outplay defenses. There is a lot to learn from them all,” Lennon said. 

With the range of exceptional qualities and capabilities that number two for the Dubs brings to the table, he plans to bring unprecedented Warrior football team success. Lennon said “My goal is to win our region and even to win state. I feel like we are criminally underrated. A lot of the teams that thought they were better than us aren’t, and I am ready to keep proving the doubters wrong,” Lennon said. 

Trey Lennon has had a tremendous impact on the Dub’s season thus far as he has made his first marks in the black and silver. He looks to sustain his early season success for the remainder of the season and to bring greatness to North Atlanta. With Lennon at the reins, the future of Dubs Football looks to be bright.
