I know this isn't 3A but this kid had a monster game and deserves to win.. Montgomery has a good team and will likely have kids win this award a lot throughout the year, the same can't be said about Oak Ridge so please help Oakley win. He is the first name on the poll towards the bottom of this website.. Thanks ahead of time!

The poll ends at noon Monday

Thanks so much.. Torrian is a really good kid and you can see by his stats that he is by far the most deserving of the award.

This poll is more than just an online achievement too btw.. The winner of the poll gets a story in the paper wrote about them

We need one BIG push in the last 2 min.

The poll runs until the sports editor stops it but he has been good at stopping it pretty close to noon all season so it should close soon. It looks like we might have done it!

The story will come out tomorrow so check back at the same Web site then.

Thanks again to everyone who helped me with this, I really appreciate your help. Fixing an online poll turned out to be pretty fun, we should do a new one everyday!

Oh and I'll cheer for the cowboys for the first quarter of tonights game but that is all..

HAHA yall can go to caller.com and vote for Ingleside's Dale F. and Sinton's Carson Cave. They are up for Offensive and Defensive player of the week, respectively.

I'd rather you NOT cheer for the Cowboys, but I appreciate you not referring to them as the cowgirls/pies/etc... ;)

Thanks for reading it, he really is a good kid and is as talented as anybody in his district.. Its kind of sad though because he hasn't gotten a lot of attention from scouts due to his size but if he keeps having games like this, he's sure to find some team that wants him

Have you considered helping his parents make a film and sending it out to some coaches? Some folks don't think or know to do that.
