Dexter, Missouri -The ShowMe Times is proud to highlight the outstanding performance of two Dexter Bearcat Football Athletes. Each week the ShowMe Times will choose two players – one offensive player an done defensive player who will be featured as Players of the Week.
Leadership on the athletic field is often a good indicator of the future development of our young students and is a perfect training ground for future leaders.
This week several athletes contributed on the field, and many athletes showed extreme professionalism against their opponent; however only two players were chosen.
The ShowMe Times is pleased to announce the Players of the Week are for Offense - Mr. Tyler Stevenson, for Defense - Mr. Jason Jarrell, Mr. Tyler Stevenson and Mr. Austin Chesser.Tyler Stevenson not only graded the best on the offensive line helping protect the quarterback he had 8 tackles on the defensive side as well. Tyler hardly left the game to rest and played throughout the event to the best of his ability.
"Tyler is a very hard worker and deserves this recognition," commented head football coach Justin Peden. "He is a leader on the offensive and defensive lines and is a great teammate."
Along with Tyler were Jason Jarrell and Austin Chesser who each added 8 tackles a piece. Together they tallied 24 tackles for the Bearcats.
"Jason battled back from injury to be a key player for us on both sides of the ball," continued Peden. "It is definitely good to have him back."
"Austin is a beast in the weight room and can hit like a freight train," Peden said of Chesser's defensive stamina. "If he could stay healthy he would be an even bigger force."
Congratulations to all of these fine young men on their accomplishments.
The Bearcats will be back in action when they travel to Kennett Friday, September 25, 2015. Game time 7:00 p.m.
