Description: Growing up in Downingtown Pennsylvania, Will started his football journey with the Marsh Creek Eagles, Downingtown Middle School, and Downingtown West HS where he led the team to their only District Championship. A true embodiment of a “team player,”
Will Howard is coming into his own. In his third year at Kansas State, Will has embodied the term “team player”. Whether on the field or on the sideline, Will has always assumed a leadership role. People gravitate to his humble and playful style. With unquestionable dedication, he is fiercely focused on his craft. Will strives to excel in both preparation and work ethic and places his team and teammates ahead of himself and his personal achievements.
This same philosophy applies to Will’s philanthropic work. He spearheaded the effort to host a “Get in the Game, Save a Life” program for the Andy Talley Bone Marrow Foundation. This action has already resulted in a donor match through the national Be The Match registry. Will is now an ambassador of the Leukemia Lymphoma Society. He also spends some of his personal time with his “little brother”, whom he met through Kansas Big Brothers Big Sisters.
Will excels both on the field and in the classroom, earning Academic All-America honors last year.
