The Trentonian (Trenton, NJ)

12TH MAN TD CLUB PLAYERS OF THE WEEK

-

Offensive Back of the Week, Dante Wilson, Pennington (Sr., RB): Senior co-captain had 196 yards on 22 carries and 3 TDs against a team (St. Luke’s) that shaped up to be one of the toughest on our schedule. Dante finished with 1258 yards on the year and was a very big reason for our success. Has had an outstandin­g career and really came into his own this year. Offensive Lineman of the Week, Matt Heverin, Robbinsvil­le (Jr., C): With over 400 yards of offense from scrimmage in a crazy game in the Shore Conference (35-27 loss to Matawan), our entire offensive line deserves to be nominated. They couldn’t stop us, but unfortunat­ely, we couldn’t stop them either. Defensive Lineman of the Week, Jordan Allwood, Steinert (Jr., DE): Jordan has been great this year and was very active Saturday. He had 8 total tackles including 2 tackles for loss. He also had a forced fumble and fumble recovery in a win over Hightstown. Defensive Back of the Week, Deon McLean, Lawrence (Jr., CB): Deon had six tackles in the loss vs. Jackson Liberty and leads the team with 6 intercepti­ons on the season. Special Teams Player of the Week, Matthew Hedrick, Ewing (Jr., K/P): Matthew made his first varsity field goal from 32 yards out (he’s only attempted two all season), averaged 34 yards on 3 punts and put one of them inside the 20. His ability to help us change field position allowed us to stay competitiv­e without our two starting tailbacks and quarterbac­k.
