Delmahr Wright Jr. started playing football when he was five years old. He got his start thanks to his father, a football player himself, who also happened to coach Delmahr in those early years.
Delmahr said he loves the atmosphere that comes along with playing football on a Friday night.
“I like the competition every year and the support from the fans,” Delmahr said. “The atmosphere from the coaching staff to the fans, especially our fan section is something I really enjoy.”
Leominster coach Devin Gates said Delmahr has worked his way into being a really great football player for the Blue Devils.
“He did a very good job in the off-season programs, and has been a coachable and dependable player for us over the last two years,” Gates said. “This year he has also started on the offensive line, and has done a great job thus far.”
“Delmahr is a great teammate and has earned a lot of respect from the team for his play and leadership,” Gates added. “I am excited to see what he does the rest of the season.”
Delmahr said he has learned the value of being part of a team from coach Gates.
“I’ve learned that no matter what you still have your teammates around you to rely on,” Delmahr said.
At LHS, Delmahr said his favorite class is gym and his favorite teacher is Mr. Sheehan.
Outside of school, Delmahr plays basketball and football.
