September 20, 2016HONORABLE MENTION: South Lafourche defensive end Terry Hunter— With the Tarpons and Tigers deeply entrenched in a rivalry battle, Hunter did his part to help his team, recording three sacks — all in critical situations.
BRONZE: CCA back Cameron Solet— With a couple key players out of the Lions’ lineup. Solet stepped up, using a couple first-quarter touchdown runs to help push the Lions to 3-D on the season. The Lions’ rushing game has been able to keep opponents off balance all season.
SILVER: Ellender Memorial High School’s defense— I get that field conditions were atrocious on Friday night at South Terrebonne High School, but a shutout is a shutout. I saw the Bonnabel offense with my own eyes. Those guys have athletes and can make plays in space. For the Patriots to get a shutout is a pretty big deal.
GOLD: Thibodaux athlete Amik Robertson— For the first 42 minutes of Friday’s game. Amik Robertson was completely shut down — perhaps as well as he will be defended all season. But in the final six minutes, he forced a game-saving fumble and scored two, separate touchdowns to will the Tigers to victory.
