Hansen was named MVP of the game by game officials and was the best player on the field in my opinion.
He led all defensive players with 11 tackles and one for a loss. On offense, he took one snap and ran for a 40-yard touchdown.
Hansen covers a lot of the field with his speed and is a hard-hitting tackler with good football IQ.
Matranga had two interceptions for the South and returned one 40 yards for a touchdown.
He was excellent as an edge rusher and in pass coverage for the South. All of the linebackers for the South were excellent, but Hansen and Matranga stood out.
Cameron Denoon
Cameron Denoon
Denoon was the best defensive lineman for the South. He had six tackles, two for a loss, a sack and a tipped pass.
He showed a good mix of power moves and speed moves. Denoon was constantly in the backfield.
Alex Zeppos
Alex Zeppos
Zeppos was excellent off the edge and as a 3-technique for the South defensive line.
Coaches raved about his motor and he had one of the four sacks for the South defense.

NORTH
Faulkner led the North in tackles with six and showed different dimensions of his game.
I knew he was excellent in coverage, and he was on Saturday, but he also flew up the field to make tackles in the underneath game. He is a hard-hitter and would be a steal for a college this late in the game.
Highlights
Josh Grethen
Josh Grethen
Grethen was the best defensive lineman for the North and had the lone sack of the game for the team.
He had some impressive power pass rush moves and knows how to get skinny through double teams. Grethen has impressive strength and showed he is a good tackler.
Hughes was the best cover corner for the North team and was the only player to have multiple pass deflections.
The South only completed one pass over 10 yards to his side of the field and he was in the hip pocket of receivers on all the deep balls.
