North Tops South In U.P. All-Star Football Contest

MARQUETTE---The Upper Peninsula High School All-Star Football game was played Saturday in the Superior Dome, with the North team beating the South, 28-21.

The game was close and highly-competitive from start to finish, as neither team was up more than one touchdown in the game. There were scores back and forth, as well as a period of great defensive play where the offenses could not move the ball.

The North won the game on the final play of the game.

The individual awards were as follows:

North Offensive MVP: Dylan Tasson, Negaunee.
North Defensive MVP: Brett Johnson, Munising.
North Character Award: Isaiah Bekkala, Hancock.

South Offensive MVP: Danny Van Effen, Escanaba.
South Defensive MVP: Phil King, West Iron County.
South Character Award: Jake Polich, West Iron County.

Individual awards were decided on by the coaching staffs of each team after the game.

The traveling trophy was presented to the North team and coach Fred Bryant of Newberry. A miniature version of the trophy was also presented to Paul Jacobson of Negaunee, who was the head coach for the victorious North team in 2015.

The traveling trophy may be passed between schools representing the North, then brought back to Marquette for next year’s game, where Coach Bryant will receive his own miniature trophy for this year’s victory.
