A third-year cadet, Heaton coaches first-years alongside Emery and is known as a formidable prospect on the mat. During a Squad Battle mission, Heaton guards Quinn’s body in the weight room. When the squad discusses command, Heaton declines the leadership role; the cadet can also breathe underwater.
