KTGR is highlighting an outstanding area high school athlete every week!
This week feature’s Rock Bridge’s Derrick Young. Last week against Francis Howell, Derrick had 2 touchdowns and 176 all purpose yards in Rock Bridge’s 28-21 victory. This performance helped the Bruins extend their winning streak to 8 straight closing out their regular season.
“He has a great work ethic and every rep in practice every day is max effort. He’s a great runner and very solid receiver, and has worked himself into a hard nosed willing pass blocker as well. Though not vocal, Derrick leads by example and has shown the younger players how to work hard and celebrate your teammates,” Bruins Assistant Coach Alex Harrell said.
Rock Bridge gets the week off and returns to action on November 8th for Class 6 District 4 postseason action against St.Dominic.
