DeAndre Scott, a 5-foot-10, 180-pound senior defensive back helped lead his team to a PIAA Class 2A Eastern title and a final standing as runner-up in the state.

On offense Scott rushed for 429 yards on 33 carries and four touchdowns.

On defense he had 96 tackles, 12 tackles for a loss and six interceptions. He returned one interception for a touchdown, two fumble recoveries and three punt returns.

He helped his team to a 12-3 record and his school is the first Philadelphia public school to reach the PIAA football finals.

Back in November, Scott verbally committed to play football at Arizona State. He chose Arizona State over schools like Arizona, Boston College, Florida, Michigan State and Penn State.

He joins former West Catholic alum Jaelen Strong, who is a sophomore wide receiver for the Sun Devils.

Scott was selected to play in the 2014 Offense-Defense All-American Bowl.
