WCMS football doles out its 2006 awards
|
The Warren County Middle School football squad celebrated its undefeated 2006 campaign and Central Tennessee Conference championship at its recent postseason awards banquet. While the accomplishments of the 9-0 Pioneers were lauded throughout the fall, the banquet gave the program an opportunity for one final celebration, as well as a chance to honor several individual players who made the team?s success possible.
Four varsity Most Valuable Player awards were presented at the banquet, with Cody Robinson named the team?s overall MVP.
Running back Caleb Northcutt and QB Michael Thrower earned Co-MVP status for their play on the offensive side of the ball, while Rob Parsley was named the team?s defensive most valuable player.
Several other awards were presented, including the Pride Award, which went to McKay Boles, and the Most Improved Player honor, which was presented to J.T. Cutrell. Twelfth Man awards went to Casey Burch and Micah Panter, while Gabriel Walkup earned the Coaches Award for his play this season and Ivan Barrera was named Newcomer of the Year.
Position awards on the varsity level went to offensive back Dusty Rhea, as well as defensive back Tyler Glenn and receiver Landy Curtis. Robert Harris earned the Pioneers? offensive line award, while defensive line honors went to Lucas Hendrixson and the special teams award was taken home by Christian Gonzalez.
The Pioneer junior varsity doled out three awards of its own, with Garrison Holmes taking top offensive honors, Cody Qualls earning the defensive award and McCrae Thomsen named the team?s MVP.
The WCMS varsity finished a perfect 9-0, capturing the CTC regular-season championship before going on to win the league?s season-ending bowl game with a victory over Coffee County and wrapping their season with a 53-0 win over DeKalb County. The high-octane Pioneer offense scored 300 points for the season, while a stingy defensive unit allowed just over a touchdown per game.
