Austin Schwalbauch: No Glasses, No Problem.

The 2017 High School Football season is just days away. This means, all of our local teams have been busy preparing for this season in Two-A-Day practices, and Scrimmages. Last Saturday, the Circleville Tigers hosted the Logan Chieftains in a scrimmage which included “Game Like” simulation.
One thing that caught everyone’s attention was Sophomore RB #28, Austin Schwalbauch. His running technique and ability to break tackles was not all that got our attention.
It was his glasses.

We had the pleasure of speaking with Austin, and here is how our conversation went.
Deven: Austin, we have to ask. How often do your glasses come off during football?
Austin: Almost every time I hit. I have to hurry and catch them as I fight through the line.
Deven: Have you had to replace or repair your glasses at all?
Austin: No, actually the same pair has lasted me. Its crazy they haven’t broke yet. I’m surprised they haven’t.
