This

weeks Triple A Farm Bureau Player of the Week is not your typical player of the

Thomas Dale who is getting done on both sides. In his first start he

had 8 rushes for 38 yards and a touchdown. Passing wise he was 4 of 5 for

110 yards and a touchdown. On defense he had 8 tackles and 1 interception.

While those stats are not attention grabbers, to do so as a backup is amazing

and gives Thomas Dale something to look forward to next season.

Congratulations David Williams, you are this weeks Triple A Farm Bureau Player

of the Week.
