One of Cornell College’s football players is making national news with an article published in USA Today and shared in other outlets such as Yahoo!. 

The article, “Daniel Abesames-Hammer of Division III Cornell College among smallest college football players ever,” details how the 5-foot-1, 125-pound Abesame-Hammer came to play football and what motivates him. 

“I was never really scared of being hit by huge people,” Abesames-Hammer said in the article. “You can’t be scared. You have to go 100 percent every play.”

The Cornell junior, who plays running back, is from California.
