North Olmsted Eagle Sammy Capps
Sammy Capps recovered from multiple surgeries on his knees to have a solid senior season and help lead the Eagles to the playoffs.
Capps had such a tremendous bounce back season in all three phases of the game as he played RB, LB and was one of the very best special team’s players the GLC. Capps finished with a school record 6 blocked kicks. He blocked 5 FG / PAT’s combined, and also blocked a punt.
Capps had a 100 plus rushing yard performance in the second half alone against Westlake in Week 7 that propelled the Eagles to victory that night. He then received nearly 10,000 votes later that week in our Player of the Week voting.
North Olmsted head coach Tim Brediger had this to say about Sammy’s incredible bounce back season, “Sammy is an awesome kid who dealt with a lot to get back to being able to play and be productive in all 3 phases this year. ”
Yep, it would be nice for these young men to get some individual validation. They do all of the things you mentioned on Page 1, too!
Nice job with the coverage and recognition of each individual team. I’m sure it not easy and KeeOnSports had an outstanding season just like all of the GLC players you mentioned. Being a bit of a homer, I will say that I enjoyed your coverage of North Olmsted the most. I would also like to mention the entire Offensive Line for the hard work they put in and the effort they gave in each game. LT: Joey Wengstrom has the size, strength and athletic ability to play at the next level. LG: Christian Riggen, I’ve watched him play since youth football, hard nosed young man, very tough. C: Brandon O’Boyle, two way player this season and perfect with every snap. Cowboy strong. RG: Kent Albert, another one that I’ve watched play sports since he was young. This guy is the pure definition of gym rat. Strong, obviously, since he is the lightest Lineman I’ve seen. RT: Jacob Holtz, just a sophomore starting every game. That says a ton considering the competition in the GLC. He is going to be fun to watch next year. Fantastic group of young men and 3 of them return next year.
