Jamar Graham – Cedar Grove
An outstanding young QB in the Atlanta area, the sophomore showed off a big arm and the ability to sling the ball deep. He made some key throws deep down the field in the first half, tossing three touchdowns, one of them being a big 80-yard TD pass that Graham threw beautifully deep down the field. He has a great arm for someone his age and he pulled off some high-caliber throws in the biggest moments. After a slow start to the game, Graham threw them back in it and led the Saints to a 56-26 victory. Graham could not have played better, going 22/35 for 352 yards and 5 TD. He was named player of the game and it was well deserved.
