Lance was born in Marshall, Minnesota on May 9, 2000, as the child of Angie and Carlton Lance. He was primarily trained by his father, a former cornerback for the London Monarchs of the World Football League and the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League.
Lance was a running back in his youth, and in college he started playing quarterback. He then enrolled at Marshall High School, where he was considered the best quarterback in Minnesota. Only teams from the Five-Year Conferences or the Football Championship Subdivision offered Lance the chance to continue playing quarterback. In December 2017, he finally declared his commitment to the state of North Dakota.
Lance is at the peak of his career and has yet to shine more and progress much higher in his career. His parents were hugely supportive in pursuing his passion and establishing a successful career in American football. Carlton’s his background also helped him follow his interest. He considers his father the backbone of his career and often mentions that he wouldn’t have gotten this far without the support of his family.
Trey’s parents have been together since they first met in college. Carlton is part owner of the Hampton Ridge Financial Company and has since retired from football. His mother is employed by Schwan and is a state graduate of southwestern Minnesota.
