This video shows some of the work Tommy Ellingworth, a wide receiver for the Barnstormers, put in before the season. He has played for the Iowa Barnstormers for the past two years. After a backup role most of last season he got a few chances and played well when given the opportunity.
This year started off much the same for Tommy as many new names were added to the roster. Discouraged but not defeated, he knew he only needed one chance to show what he could do. He got that opportunity against Arizona and had a nice game, catching several passes including a touchdown.
It is great to see players who put in the time working hard finally get their shot and make the best of it. We are happy for Tommy and look forward to seeing him in the upcoming games for the Barnstormers!
