Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award
 |
71st Quarterback Deandre Nance is this week’s recipient of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award presented by Mid-South Sports. Deandre picked up almost 200 yards rushing and passing and scored 3 TDs as the Falcons defeated the Richmond Raiders 35-28. This award is sponsored by Jimmy Keefe, owner of The Trophy House and Clark Sporting Goods. Congratulations Deandre Nance! |

The week two recipient of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award is Jayson Franklin, junior running back for the Seventy-First Falcons for his performance against the Trojans of Pine Forest. Jayson’s stats were good- 123 yards rushing on just nine carries and scoring two touchdowns. But it was the manner in which he picked up those yards; twisting, cutting hard to avoid tacklers, and carrying tacklers to pick up extra yards to help his team. That earned him this award! Congratulations Jayson!

The week three recipient of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award is King Faison, running back for the Colts of Cape Fear. King amassed 145 yards on just 16 rushes and one touchdown against the Terry Sanford Bulldogs. King was instrumental in some key third downs that allowed his Colts to move the chains and post a 31 to 7 victory. With King is head coach Jacob Thomas. Congrats King Faison! |

The Week Four recipient of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award is Emorrian Towns, junior running back for the Jack Britt Buccaneers for his performance in the 21-20 victory over the Scotland County Fighting Scots. Two big plays from Emorrian set the stage for this award. In the third quarter, with the Bucs leading 8-6, Emorrian squirted through a hole and went 58 yards for the score. But the big play, with Scotland approaching the goal line, Emorrian jumped into the scrum, came out with ball, and sprinted all the way inside the Scots 20 yard line to set up another Britt score. Congrats Emorrian Towns! |
 |
The Week Five recipient of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award is Zymeir McPhaul for the game he played helping his Seventy-First Falcons defeat the Tigers of South View. The senior offensive tackle created block after block opening huge holes for his running backs to run through and on many occasions “pancaked” his opponent to the point the running backs scored untouched. Congratulations Zymeir McPhaul! |
 |
The Week Six recipient of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award is sophomore running back Tai Phillips for helping his Cape Fear Colts defeat the Rams of Purnell Swett by the score of 38-0. Tai played on offense picking up almost 160 yards and rushing for two touchdowns. He also played defense and Special Teams, rarely coming off the field! Standing with Tai is the head coach of the Colts, Jacob Thomas. Congratulations Tai Phillips! |

For the first time in many years, the Mid-South Sports Team selected two recipients to receive the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award. Senior QB Deandre Nance was selected because he contributed to SIX touchdowns, running for four and passing for two more. His running ability allowed his Seventy-First Falcons to put up 43 points against a very strong Cape Fear Colt defense. Donavan Frederick, the senior linebacker/running back, is the second recipient. Donavan had 12 tackles and was in on many other tackles that kept the flying Colt offense at bay and allowed only a field goal to win 43 to 3. He also picked up almost 80 yards on offense and one touchdown. Congrats Donavan Frederick (on the right) and Deandre Nance on the left)!! |

For the first time ever, the Mid-South Sports Team selected the ENTIRE defense of the Seventy-First Falcons to receive the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award for their performance against the Buccaneers of Jack Britt in the 28 to 7 win. The Defense had 41 tackles, 12 for a loss, two interceptions and two sacks! Congratulations Seventy-First Defense! |
 |
The Week Nine recipient of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award is junior linebacker Will Wicklin of the Cape Fear Colts for his efforts in the 35 to 0 win over the Buccaneers of Jack Britt. Will had 14 tackles and four of those were for a loss. In addition, Will had two sacks and a huge play on a Britt 4th and 1 to stop the drive! For these reasons, Will Wicklin is the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort recipient. Standing with Will is head coach Jacob Thomas. Congratulations Will Wicklin! |

The Week Eleven recipient, in the last week of the regular season, of the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award is junior defensive back Jaleel Parker for his efforts in the Jack Britt 27 to 23 victory over the Tigers of South View. Jaleel only carried the ball on offense for two carries picking up 41 yards; but those 41 yards were huge! The first carry was on a huge 4th and forever when he picked up 33 yards for a first down. His second carry came late in the game on a 3rd and 8 when he picked up the first down to seal the win. On defense, he had eight tackles and a huge interception that he ran back over 50 yards for a touchdown! For all this, Jaleel was named the Lloyd Foster Extra Effort Award! |
