ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Menlo’s Jack Heneghan has thrown for 2,698 yards and 33 TDs. Ocean Division, finished with seven catches for 89 yards. Teammate Max Parker was named Special Teams Player of the Year. For Menlo to beat Sacred Heart Prep, Heneghan needs to continue his outstanding season and the Knights need to play error-free ball. For the Gators to win, they must stop Heneghan and force Menlo into turnovers. Just like in the Valpo Bowl. N
