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 and one 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 was a tough decision as so many players contributed in ways that did not reflect on the stats sheet against Ste. Genevieve; however only two players were chosen.

The ShowMe Times is pleased to announce the Players of the Week are Seth Rogers and Caleb Hoggard.  Each will receive a Lotta Pig Basket from Dexter Queen!

The Offensive Player of the Week is junior, #16 Caleb Hoggard.  Caleb had 25 carries for 100 yards. His longest carry was 17 yards.

Caleb was a work horse for us, carrying it 25 times for 100 yards," stated head football coach Kevin Goltra. "He ran hard and didn't turn over the ball. We have to get that from him every week to be successful."

The Defensive Player of the Week is junior, #21 Seth Rogers.  Seth read the Ste. Gen Dragons' quarterback well and picked off a fourth-down pass/interception traveling 85 yards for the first touchdown of the game giving the Bearcats their first lead over Ste. Genevieve in six year.    This was Seth's first interception of his varsity career.  

Congratulations to both of these two fine young men on their accomplishments.

The Bearcats will be back in action when they travel to Poplar Bluff to take on the Mules Friday, August 25th.  Game time 7:00 p.m.
