Good morning, Chattanooga!
UTC football player McClendon Curtis has twice been named to the All-Southern Conference first team as an offensive lineman and has been recognized for his academic achievements.
But he hasn’t just made a name for himself on the field and in the classroom. In the kitchen, from air fryer grilled cheese to Chinese food and banana pudding cheesecake, Curtis’s teammates know him as quite the chef.
“Best cook on the team,” linebacker Ty Boeck said earlier this week, while noting that defensive end Devonnsha Maxwell also makes the list due to his wings. “He [Curtis] makes some really good Cajun pasta.”
