Offensive Player of the Week:
-D’Andre Webb (Wood – Sr. – RB): In the regular season finale vs Archbishop Carroll last weekend the Patriots held Webb reasonably in check. That same outcome wasn’t evident this past weekend, as the Vikings behind Webb’s prowess rolled to a 31-6 win over Carroll in the PCL 3A Final. Webb rushed for 264 yards on 32 carries. Three times he found the end zone on runs of 25, 46, and 27 yards. Webb now has 1,926 rushing yards and 27 touchdowns on the season.
Offensive Honor Roll:
-Logan Dairsow (SJ Prep – Jr. – RB)
-Jahmil Hawkins (Roman – Jr. – QB)
-Trey Montgomery (Roman – Jr. – RB)
Defensive Player of the Week:
-Max Brown (O’Hara – Sr. – S): Brown was a force for the Lions’ defense in their blanking of Bonner-Prendie in the PCL 4A final. All total, he registered 11 tackles (8 solos); including a sack and 3 other TFLs. His sideline-to-sideline play was noticeable throughout.
Defensive Honor Roll:
-Cody Biddle-Peete (Wood – Sr. – LB)
-Nikhi Ridley (Wood – Sr. – DB)
-Dylan Miller (O’Hara – Sr. – LB)
-Issac Day (O’Hara – Sr. – LB)
-Chase Winterborne (SJ Prep – Jr. – LB)
-Dariel Jaquez (SJ Prep – Sr. – S)
-John Boggs (SJ Prep – Sr. LB)
-Walter Hudson (Roman – Sr. – LB)
-Chase Hinton (Roman – Sr. – DB)
-Mehki Bonner (Roman – Soph. – DT)
Special Teams Player of the Week:
-Masiia Acrey (SJP – Sr. – PR): With the Hawks’ offense sputtering late in the first half Acrey took matters into his own hands with a key 73-yard punt return for a touchdown. This knotted their game against Lasalle with just 1:35 left in the first half. The Hawks would go onto win the PCL 6A semifinal contest, 17-7, over the Explorers. Acrey had a 26-yard return on another punt that led to the Hawks’ securing the lead for good after a field goal with 3:02 left in the third quarter. Acrey’s ability to impact special teams went a long way in helping his team secure a spot in next weekend’s PCL 6A final versus Roman Catholic.
Multi-Purpose Player of the Week:
-Chaz Moore (Wood – Sr. – WR/DB)- Moore complimented the Vikings’ rushing attack with 2 catches for 38 yards. On defense, he contributed four solo tackles and returned an interception 32 yards. His two-way effort helped lead the Vikings to an impressive win over Archbishop Carroll.
Spectacular in Defeat:
-Noel Campbell (Bonner-Pren. – Sr. – QB): In B-P’s difficult defeat (7-to-0) to rival Cardinal O’Hara in the PCL 4A final, Campbell ended his career with a 11-for-20, 149 yards showing. However, we want to acknowledge his overall career as the Friars’ signal-caller. He’ll be leaving Bonner-Prendie as their all-time leading passer. Finishing his time going 460-for-808, with 6,296 yards and 60 TD passes. All of these marks are school records. Campbell is just the fifth PCL quarterback to eclipse the 6,000-yard barrier.
