Congratulations to freshman linebacker James Prather, who was named the Commercial Appeal’s Defensive Player of the Week for his performance against East.
In the Owls’ 35-8 victory, Prather, playing significant varsity minutes for the first time, made the most of his opportunity as he recorded two interceptions and one tackle.
The first interception ended an East threat deep in MUS territory with the Owls holding a 7-0 lead. And Prather returned the second 64 yards for a touchdown to double the Owls’ lead.
