Wichita North’s Kam Shortt: KTA “Driving Change” Athlete Spotlight-Presented by KTAG

By Blake Chadwick

After waiting for his opportunity, Wichita North’s Kam Shortt will be ready to burst onto the scene.

The junior has only played football for three years and has made huge strides to continue improving.

“My biggest strengths are encouraging my teammates whatever they do right or wrong,” Shortt said. “I also have a positive mindset to where I know and trust in God to give me strength in myself and push myself forward, I couldn’t have my strength today without God, which he has placed me in the right school and the right teammate, I couldn’t ask for anything better.”

Despite having another 0-9 season, Shortt and the rest of the Redhawks aren’t discouraged and are hungry for a win.

“I want my team to finally understand how it feels to win a game,” Shortt said. “It always hurts us every year that we can’t win and now it’s just a habit for North High School, but that’s all going to change sooner than we all expect and I’m ready to see the team grow and thrive into better players as a team, that’s what the team goal is.”

Under head coach Mitch Kucera, the Redhawks have slowly started to change the culture and that starts with guys with Shortt’s team first mindset.

“I stand-out as a player by having the right perspective on who I am and what I can be more of,” Shortt said. “I really do my very best to make and help the best I can for my teammates and I love them all so much as a football family, that I tend to want them to get even better than me sometimes to be honest, and I can’t be good player unless my team helps me as well, so that why I stand out, I care for my teammates dearly and I want them to get better as than most possibly can be.”
