Nathanael Ashton-Piper, Staff Writer
Known by AP, Nate, or Nate Dawg, Nathanael earned his unmistakeable nickname Naps by sleeping through his eleventh grade Morality final and still acing it. But be sure not to sleep on him. Nathanael is known for his religious support of the Minnesota Vikings, and we’re almost certain that beyond his long six-foot-four frame is a purple and gold laden soul that’s hard to impress – based on how many times the Vikings have let him down. He was voted by his peers, “most likely to cry when your favorite football team breaks your heart…again.” When he’s not watching football, studying, smiling, plugging you with a quizlet for a test you didn’t study for, or being goofy, he can be found on the baseball diamond with a mouth-full of BIGS Ranch sunflower seeds chirping the opposing team for just about anything – but don’t worry, it all comes from a place of love.
