Eufaula senior football players Blayden Neill and Peter Lee have been selected to represent Oklahoma on Team West at the All-American Bowl on December 15th at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Both athletes were selected from a pool of 1,945 recruits. The game will be televised on ESPN.
Lee carried the Ironheads team offensively. He ran for 1,164 yards on 194 carries for 14 touchdowns and finished with 17 receptions for 294 yards and 3 touchdowns for a total of 1,458 total offensive yards. Lee bounced back from a hernia surgery he had early in the season. He has great speed, never goes down on first contact and has great vision of the field.
Neill was the defensive player that offensive coordinators had to design plays to go to the opposite side of the field. At 6’4”, 220 lbs, he was explosive at the defensive end position. Neill finished with 90 tackles, 11 for a loss, led the team in quarterback sacks with four, three forced fumbles and a pass batted down. Neill is setting on six college offers as of print time.
