In 2018, Benicia High School’s Janari Boone admitted to being anxious before the start of the first game of the season.

After all, he was a freshman linebacker, starting on the varsity football team.

“It was crazy,” Boone said. “I was nervous and I was scared, but people told me, ‘Relax, you’ve been doing this your whole life’ since I had always played against older players before. But on the first play of the first game, I made a tackle and settled down.”

When Boone starts the first game of the 2020-21 season, he may not experience any tension. Instead, the feeling may be more surreal.
