Jake Collazo-Berks Catholic

Did you know that Jake Collazo once won a taco eating contest? You’ll find out exactly how many tacos he devoured and if it was worth it. Collazo explained how he lost 40 pounds and what he enjoys on “cheat days.” The 6’3, 290-pound junior plays right tackle and nose guard for the (6-3) Saints. I asked Collazo about facing PSU commit Nick Singleton of Gov. Mifflin on Friday. He replied, “I’m ready to hit him. Everybody is kind of nervous about it; I don’t have that same fear.” Singleton owns the Berks County record with 5,661 career rushing yards. The Mustangs are ranked #1 in the state in Class 5A. Collazo told me which teammates he doesn’t like going up against at practice. He also talked about what he likes to do off of the football field, and who his favorite teachers are at Berks Catholic. Plus, Collazo revealed his favorite NFL team. Hint, it’s not the Eagles.
