Servite freshman Tetairoa McMillan is making an impression
His name is Tetairoa McMillan, otherwise know as T-Mac. He’s a 6-foot-4, 180-pound freshman at Servite, and word is already out about what a good athlete he is.
As a football player on the freshman team, he played receiver and safety. The team was 5-0 until he broke his collarbone. He also plays basketball and volleyball. He wears size 15 shoes.
During spring practice, college recruiters dropping by need only watch him for a little bit. Then they’re stunned to learn he’s a freshman. Then they offer him a scholarship. He makes one-handed catches as if he were Odell Beckham Jr. He’s also an honors student and the backup long snapper.
On Saturday, Servite won the seven-on-seven passing tournament at Charter Oak, beating St. Francis in the final.
No one will remember what Servite did in a passing tournament come September, but they will remember the potential they saw in McMillan.
“He literally can do anything,†coach Troy Thomas said. “The dude can do it all.â€
Servite is not yet ready to challenge Mater Dei and St. John Bosco in the Trinity League, but the skill-position players are rapidly being replenished, and McMillan is going to lead the way.
