West Beats East In All-Star Game; Northview’s Woods Named MVP

December 15, 2012

The West defeated the East 15-6 in the 9th Annual Subway High School All-Star football game on a defense powered by a Northview Chief.

The West took the lead near the half on a 96-yard touchdown run from Escambia’s T.J. Myers, 7-0 West. The East scored in the fourth, cutting the West lead to 7-6. The West scored again with under a minute to go with a 30-yard TD run from Tate’s Lorenzo Long. Pensacola High’s Blake Norwood found fellow PHS Tiger Jonathon Bennett with the two pointer to seal the 15-6 West win.

Northview’s Roderick Woods was named the West defensive MVP with a game leading 13 tackles, and Trebian Suggs of Pine Forest was named West offensive MVP.

It was a bit of sweet redemption for Woods, who was forced to sit out the last three regular season games and entire Chiefs run to a state title due to reaching the FHSAA age limit.
