1st Team All Western Big Six Offensive Lineman

1st Team 2012 All Do or Die Team Offensive Lineman

 

CLAY FINKLEA, Quincy High

Rationale: One time Fullback settled in nicely over the last few years as Quincy High's most consistent Offensive and Defensive Lineman. Played both positions with great leverage and a low center of gravity, which made him very tough to move/shake. Good athlete for the position with a high Football IQ and a zeal for contact. Outstanding technique and great hands an added plus. Earned First Team All Western Big Six honors this season and set the bar high with his lead by example approach. The kid you want to run behind if you need one hard yard.
