Secton Playoffs Round 1- Special Teams Players of the Week

The Playoffs have started here in Minnesota.  Last Tuesday were the first round games of the Section playoffs.   Most of Minnesota's teams played and there were a lot of high scoring games. Paul Cheney of Apple Valley High School contributed in many elements of Apple Valley's big win over St Louis Park.  Paul Cheney not only is the team's kicker and punter, but he's a big contributor on defense.  As a specialist, he kicked 6 for 6 on PATs and went 1 for 1 on field goals with a 34 yard field goal for a total of 9 points.  He also had 8 tackles, 2 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles on defense. For his accomplishments, he earned our Section Playoffs Round 1 Special Teams Player of the Week honors.  Congratulations!
