Q&A With Tim Trilk
Looking back on your first year in Chattanooga, how was it?
It was an enjoyable one. As a player I was able to learn a lot from some of the veteran players in the club about how to be a professional and overall the business of the game. I was able to explore this great city and make relationships on and off the field to help make Chattanooga feel like home.
What were some of your favorite memories of the 2020 season?
Being my first season, it was definitely one with a lot of great memories. My favorites would have to be opening day at CHI Memorial Stadium and seeing the support and the excitement from the fans throughout the game, as well as our stoppage-time winner against Richmond.
How do you like living in Chattanooga? Where are some of your favorite spots in the city?
I love every bit of living in Chattanooga. It’s a great city with something for everyone. I love to spend time at all the great restaurants in town. It’s hard to beat the views of Lake Chickamauga and Sunset Rock as well.
What’re your goals for 2021?
My goals for 2021 are the same as the rest of the team, and that is to bring a championship to the Scenic City. The club has made great progress in establishing themselves as an iconic part of this city and I plan to help this club continue that growth through the 2021 season.
What’re your off-season training goals? What’s your daily routine look like?
This off-season my goal is to become stronger physically and to improve technically on the ball. Every day I wake up and have a big breakfast before heading to the gym. After the gym, I head over to the field for some fitness work and finish up with ball work. After that, its onto recovery for the following day.
What’re your thoughts on the new signings? Do you have history with any of them?
The coaching staff and front office have done a great job filling out the roster for the upcoming season. I don’t have any previous connection with any of the signings but I know they’re bringing a wealth of experience and talent to the team and I am excited to get to work with each of them.
Is there anything you’d like to say to the fans?
To the fans, there’s a new era between the sticks for the Red Wolves. I’m excited for the opportunity to take this club to the next level, and that’s just what I plan to do. I look forward to seeing the stands in CHI Memorial filled again this spring!
