Canada Gloal (Web News) Amantia said that this is probably the best feeling that I have felt while playing football. “So, I’m excited to do it,” Amantia said, adding that playing with the Dinos in Calgary was the best choice for him and that he hopes to enter the trade program.
He was named a 2022 Southern Alberta High School Football League All-Star and the 2023 CCH Lineman of the Year. Both years, Amantia was a member of Team Alberta. Ryan Sheehan said the draw to Bean was obvious. “A guy with that type of athleticism and size is something you always look for in your football program.” Down the road at Lethbridge Collegiate Institute, defensive lineman Tegan Burbach also signed with the Dinos and He intends to study kinesiology. He said he wasn’t sure if playing varsity football was possible after a knee injury and multiple surgeries during his rookie season.
“After two years and four surgeries I decided to wear cleats for the last half of this senior season and it’s been a good decision so far,” said Burbach, the Dinos head coach, adding that consistency is the big thing. “I think sometimes in life young people give up when they hit a rough patch and I’m proud of the way he’s bounced back. I think his future is bright. Both players will be moving to Calgary in the fall to begin the next chapter of their personal and sporting lives.
