The field of athletes vying to be South Carolina’s top high school football player is down to five and two are from the Broad River Electric service area.

On Wednesday, Oct. 11, the South Carolina Athletic Coaches Association selected the finalists for the 2017 Mr. Football award. Chapman High quarterback Colton Bailey, who led his team to state title last season, and Spartanburg High linebacker Connor Shugart were among the five chosen.

All five players will be recognized during halftime of the Touchstone Energy Cooperatives Bowl on Saturday, December 9, in Myrtle Beach, followed by the introduction of this year’s award recipient.

Athletic Coaches Association. “We feel that the finalists are not only outstanding football players but also outstanding young men. They certainly represent the state of South Carolina in a very positive way.”
