Even
though the Deerfield Beach High School football team came up short in
its game on Friday night against visiting Jacksonville Bolles, Bucks
quarterback Teddrick Moffett was the big winner earlier in the week when
he was presented with a very large check.
Moffett
and Blanche Ely High School linebacker David Francis were each awarded
$1,000 scholarships from the McDougle Family Foundation. The two players
were recognized as MVPs of the rain-shortened McDougle Bowl held in
honor of the McDougle Brothers on Sept. 12.
Stockar
McDougle (1996 Deerfield Beach grad) and Jerome McDougle (1997 Blanche
Ely grad) were on hand for the second annual McDougle Bowl game. Stockar
McDougle went on to play college football at the University of
Oklahoma, while Jerome McDougle played at the University of Miami. Both
brothers went on to play in the NFL.
The
scholarships were handed out during a pep rally at Deerfield Beach.
Moffett accounted for four scores, while Francis had an interception and
fumble recovery.
The
mission of the McDougle Family Foundation and Firstability Program is
to encourage teens to stay focused on their education and provide
at-risk students with support during those crisis moments.
