The offensive and defensive players will be judged on their individuals stats while the linemen will be selected via a) stats for the defensive linemen and b) overall offensive team performance and number of total yards gained for offensive linemen. (We will include Special Teams players in honorable mentions should they gain our attention.)
Candidates must be attending and enrolled in a credited high school program. This will not include CĆ©gep players, they will be identified in a separate, but similar, format on a weekly basis.

Position: Quarterback
School Team: Harry Ainlay Titans
Year: Sophomore
W 40-6 v. Austin O’Brien – This super Sophomore has Ainlay firing on all cylinders, Last week he had 350 yards passing and 4 touchdown passes. Scary to think how good this young man will be over the next 3 seasons. Can Hetlinger and Ainlay bring the provincial title back to Edmonton?

W 45-7 v. Steinbach Sabre – Dominant O-Linemen who is one of the best run blockers in the country. This young man simply crushes his opponent. There are clips were he displaces the defender 15 yards downfield. He paves the way for a dominant run game that makes St. Paul’s almost unbeatable.
