Inside the Lines: Liam Kuhn on Crestview football, pole vaulting & following in family footsteps
Description
In this episode of Inside the Lines, Curt Conrad and Effie James sit down with Crestview senior quarterback and pole vaulter Liam Kuhn. Liam reflects on following in the footsteps of his father and older brothers, learning how to read defenses, and growing into a calm, composed leader for the Crestview offense. He talks about how playing both sides of the ball and learning from failures has helped him and the team improve, as well as how the front six on defense has eased pressure on the offense. Liam also shares what it means to beat rival St. Paul, the keys to Crestview’s current win streak and what it will take to succeed in the playoffs.

He discusses the importance of facilities, coaching and scholarship opportunities in track & field, and how competing in multiple sports helps him grow as an athlete. The episode wraps up with rapid-fire questions covering family rivalries, Crestview history and who the best athlete in the Kuhn family is.
