Rabun County’s Bear Old (OL) and Dawson County’s Cade Adams (DL) have been named the Habersham EMC Linemen of the Week by BLITZ.

Bear Old – OL

Bear Old is a beast on the O-Line. He has proven on a weekly basis that he is worthy of D-I consideration for sure! His latest showcase was in Rabun’s win over Union in Week 11, in which the senior put up a championship grade on the line and owned the trenches in paving the way for north of 500 yards of offense for the Wildcats. This is Old’s second solo POW award.

Other OL Standouts – Cole Patterson (Jefferson SR OL #68 – Championship Grade; 2 PNK); Brayton Purcell (Commerce SR OL #55 – 96% Grade, 4 PNK, 388 Rush Yds)

Cade Adams – DL

Cade Adams had a mammoth game for the Tigers in their win over Lumpkin. The junior defensive tackle posted 10 tackles, including 6 tackles behind the line. He had 3 sacks in earning his second career POW award.

Other DL Standouts – Oscar Escobedo (Jefferson JR DL – 6 TKL, 1 TFL, 1 Sack, 2 QBH); Chris Thompson (Rabun SR DL #77 – 8 TKL, 1.5 TFL)
