Clarence Scott
Safety - 6-4, 205
East St. John
Scott had one big play and it was a monster. He chased down St. Charles Catholic RB Lazedrick Thompson near the end of an 80-yard run and forced the Tulane commit to fumble away the football near the goal-line. Thus, East St. John's win was preserved, and it was also the first time East St. John had prevailed against St. Charles Catholic in three years.
