Player Name: Miami
Name: Nolan Viktor Ahlstrom
Nickname: None that he knows of
Age: 16
Birthday: January 31st, 1992
Place of birth:
Grade: Sophomore at Silver
Appearance: Nolan is a tall guy, standing 6'4”, and has an athletic build. He is handsome, but rarely ever smiles, and his blond hair and blue eyes give away his Swedish heritage.
Personality: Ask just about anyone and the one thing they will say to describe Nolan is that he is serious. Constantly serious. He is rarely ever ever found smiling or laughing, even in the company of his friends. That's not to say he isn't happy, but that he has learned to keep a lot of his emotions hidden. He is usually very polite and friendly, not buying into the “too cool” attitude, but he still has the strong desire to be liked by the cool crowd.
Town area: Santa Monica
Job: None.
Transportation: A 2005 Camaro SS
Family background: Nolan's father's parents moved to America from Sweden in the late 50's and settled in Menomenee Falls, WI to opened a brewery. Nils father was born shortly after, the first of his family born in the US. Nils excelled at sports as a youth, particularly football and hockey, and after high school he went to the University of Wisconsin on a scholarship to play football for the Badgers. When he was 20, he traveled to Lake Placid to see the 1980 Winter Olympics. It was there he met Brigitta Lundgren, a figure skater from the Swedish team. They began a relationship. Nils was named the starting quarterback his junior year of college and became a highly sought after recruit until an injury to his knee ended his would-be football career. After graduating with a business degree, Nils began working with the scouting department for the Green Bay Packers. His career took off, and he soon found himself with both a family and his own successful talent agency. They relocated to Los Angeles when their star client was traded to the Chargers, and set up a new branch. Nils' success grew in LA, landing many high profile clients. Shortly after Nolan was born, the 4th child. When Nolan was 9, his mother passed away from cancer.
Nolan's oldest brother, Adam, is 24 and plays quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. He was a first round draft pick, and started a few games towards the end of last season. He is believed to be their future. He attended school at LSU and has always been the least family oriented of the children.
Nolan's sister, Martina, is 22 and attends UCLA, studying medicine.. After their mother passed, Marty took it upon herself to take care of the family and so decided to stay close by.
Nolan's second brother, Frederik, is 20 and attends USC studying history. He also decided to stay closer to the family, though he rarely sees them as school and football currently take precedence.

How long have they been attending Silver ?: Since he was a freshman.

Likes: Nolan likes being around people, even though it may not seem like it. He usually just hangs around, not adding to any conversation much but watching everyone else. He enjoys almost any sport, though football is his favorite. He enjoys the high pressure situations that come with athletics. He also enjoys succeeding, and will usually attempt anything at least once. Along with that, he enjoys the attention that success brings.
Dislikes: Being alone, failing at anything, public speaking.
Other Information: The death of his mother strongly affects Nolan, and he gets very moody and upset whenever anyone brings that up. Also, a big part of the reason he works so hard is to get the attention of his father, whom he feels he barely knows. He feels like his brothers and sister get all the glory.

200 word writing sample:
The package sat on Nolan's bed. He noticed it right away when he entered his room. Excitement took hold and he dropped his bag and rushed to the bed. He barely glanced at the address, knowing it was from Adam. The wrapping was torn into pieces in moments, floating slowly to the bedroom floor. Nolan opened the box and pulled out his prize. A bright red Chiefs home jersey, with his last name on the back. His brother's jersey, or a replica of it, complete with the number 4. Nolan couldn't wait to show all his friends.
A note tumbled from the from the jersey, and Nolan read it over. A challenge: if Nolan could be named the starting quarterback next year, his junior year, Adam would fly him and three friends to Kansas City for the Chiefs opener. Nolan held the jersey up in front of him and looked in the mirror. It looked good, that was for sure. And to have three friends come along? It would be expensive, but Adam's contract was out of control and he had money to throw around. Nolan smiled, a rarity. It would be a lot of work, but he knew he could do it.
