Early years
Born in a northwestern suburb of Chicago, Xave grew up not poor but not wealthy either. He is an only child to Garth and Freyna Valorian who did their best to provide for him. Xave was picked on in his early school days to his incredibly light-toned hair, often creating comparisons to a more elderly man than a child or teenager. Through this persistent bullying, Xave developed a thick skin for taunts and developed an inner fire that could be channeled into hits on opposing QBs. He discovered this gift during a game as an early child when the opposing OL began taunting him and calling "Gramps". Not only did Xave imemdiately blow by the line, the QB never even saw him. In High School, he holds the record for sacks in a season and percentage double teamed by opponents. He gained a reputation of having the speed and iontelligence of a college player while only a junior and would frequently force opposing coaches to switch gameplans to avoid his relentless onslaught towards the QB.
College career
Despite his talents on the field, Xave madethe incredibly surpirising decision to pursue a career off the field, electing to study Business at Bethel University, a small private Christian school in Arden Hills, MN. As the school is only D-3, Xave quickly earned a starting position and wrecked havoc on opposing QBs that were clearly outmatched. Depsite his desire to join the traditional workforce, fate would have other plans. The rare ISFL scout came to a Bethel game Xave's senior year and immediately was impressed by the speed and game knowledge Xave possessed. The scout approached him after the game and sold Xave on the possibility of joining the league in the next coming seasons. Xave officially declared himself eligible for the Season 36 ISFL draft, knowing he would need to first proof his worth in the DSFL in Season 35. Xazve left the Bethel Royals as their all-time sack leader.
