My name is Jay Manson and I am a rising sophomore at Flagler College in Saint Augustine, Florida, where I am studying Sport Management.
I was born and raised in Sarasota, Florida and attended Saint Stephen’s Episcopal School in Bradenton, Florida from 2nd grade through high school.
While at Saint Stephen’s, I played 3 years of Varsity football. I played Offensive and Defensive Line in my career, playing every position on both lines except for center.
As my time playing football started to reach an end, I started looking for a way to continue to pursue my love of football and sports in college and that is when I found Sport Management. With my major I either want to become a football coach or work in a college athletic department, ideally in the future working my way up to Director of College Football Scouting.
