2023 5’8 170 RB – Pat Cary – St. Mary’s Annapolis
Pat Cary was named 1st Team All-MIAA, and he consistently dominated out of the backfield all season long for the Saints. The championship game was a solid one for Cary, however, his jaw-dropping performance at Severn in the mid-season particularly stood out to me. Pat Cary ran for over 200 yards and 3 touchdowns in that contest, and it was truly his performance of the year. It was also a flash of greatness that I believe Pat Cary can sustain at the next level in the college game. He’s a strong runner with a phenomenal work ethic, and his leadership, both on and off the field, cannot go overlooked by scouts. Pat Cary was a fundamental piece of this St. Mary’s Saints offense, and they don’t go undefeated this Fall without him in the backfield.

2023 5’10 175 WR – Joshua Derry – Concordia Prep
Joshua Derry was the player of the game for Concordia Prep in this MIAA championship, and he hauled in nearly ten catches in doing so. Derry secured 8 receptions for 170 yards and a touchdown, and he burned the St. Mary’s defense for more than sixty yards on his lengthy touchdown score. Joshua Derry is a game changing receiver who put up spectacular numbers during his time at Concordia Prep. He has received offers from schools such as Monmouth, Old Dominion, and Liberty, and, after a stellar season and championship performance, I believe even more D1 offers will continue to roll in for Derry. Joshua Derry is absolutely deserving of 1st Team All-MIAA honors in 2022, and whichever D1 program receives his commitment, if he choses to do so, should be ecstatic because he’s going to do great things.
