We got busy with a lot of guests on this morning's \"Calling All Sports\" radio show and didn't get to mention our Frantz Trophies Player of the Week. <\/p>\n
So, we'll do it here. <\/p>\n
There were numerous big performances on Friday night. <\/p>\n
Easton's Shane Simpson, Whitehall's Saquon Barkley and Southern Lehigh's Travis Edmond all had huge nights. <\/p>\n
However, they have been past Frantz Trophies Player of the Week selections and we like to spread it around. <\/p>\n
So, we're going to go with someone I saw in person. <\/p>\n
I'm going with Freedom's sophomore quarterback Joe Young, who played through an injury and battled hard to the end of the Patriots' 29-28 overtime win over Whitehall. <\/p>\n
Young's numbers might not compare to some other performers. He ran for 105 yards and completed just five passes for 68 yards. <\/p>\n
But he displayed tremenous heart and poise in leading Freedom on three touchdown drives that covered 90 yards or more and then he ran in the TD in the overtime. <\/p>\n
There were a couple of points where it seemed like Young might not be able to able. He could barely walk at one point. <\/p>\n
