Player of the Year
Jershaun Newton, Clearwater Central Catholic 2025
The sophomore standout threw for 2,219 yards and 23 touchdowns this season while also rushing for 1,355 yards and 15 touchdowns. Jershaun truly had a remarkable season that saw him lead the Marauders to the 1M state championship game against Chaminade-Madonna. He finished with more than 300 total yards in four games this season. He finished games with over 100 rushing yards and 100 passing yards five times also. Overall, Newton accounted for 38 of CCC’s 55 offensive touchdowns. His overall body of work against a difficult schedule proves that he is more than deserving of the title of the 2022 All BCP Player of the Year.
Offensive Player of the Year
Anthony Colandrea, Lakewood 2023
It’s hard to argue with consistency. Hit rewind and look at Anthony’s 2021 stats. He completed 216 passes (62.6%) for 3,252 yards and 27 TDs with just 10 interceptions. But All BCP’s focus is “What have you done for me lately?” So you jump to his 2022 stats and see that he completed 224 passes (64.2%) for 3,137 yards and 28 passing TDs with just 8 interceptions. Anthony also just had his best season with his legs as he rushed for 657 yards and 6 touchdowns for an average of 50.5 rushing yards per game.
Defensive Player of the Year
Terrell James, Lake Wales 2023
29 sacks would be a great career total for most high school players. 108 total tackles is two games worth for most defenses. 58 tackles for loss is a disaster for every offense he played against. The numbers Terrell James produced on his way to leading his team to an undefeated 3S state championship are crazy: 79 solo tackles, 108 total tackles, 58 tackles for loss, 29 sacks, 2 caused fumbles. The 6’4” 225 pound senior posted 13 double-digit TFL games and had at least 2 sacks in every game but the Lake Region game in mid-September.
Special Teams Player of the Year
James Conley, Hudson 2024
Conley averaged 37.4 yards per kickoff return and 28.8 yards per punt return. Both numbers are extremely impressive. He single-handedly kept the offense in good field position proving to be a true weapon on the third side of the ball. He returned 4 kickoffs and 2 punts for touchdowns.
Coach of the Year
Tavaris Johnson, Lake Wales
15-0 and a state title. Let’s start there. His offense produced 598 points, that’s an astounding 40 points per game. Even more impressive, his defense allowed less than a touchdown a game. In 12 of the 15 games this season the Highlanders did not allow a double-digit score to the opponent while the offense produced 40 or more points in 7 games. The Highlanders were dominant on all three sides of the ball. Fast, physical and disciplined. Congrats to Coach Johnson and the Highlanders.
