BROOKVILLE'S SANTORIELLO NAMED D9SPORTS.COM DISTRICT 9 FOOTBALL PLAYER OF THE WEEK FOR WEEK TWO 2002

14 players named to District 9 Honor Roll

CORSICA – Brookville’s Corey Santoriello is the D9Sports.Com District 9 Football Player of the Week for the second week of the 2002 season.

Santoriello played a key role in Brookville’s 26-18 upset win over Clearfield last Friday that evened the Raiders record at 1-1 and got them off to a 1-0 start in the D9 League. He combined for 195 total yards of offense and three touchdowns including eight catches for 112 yards and a score and four runs for 83 yards and two touchdowns. His 64-yard scoring run with 7:38 left in the fourth quarter sealed the win for Brookville.

In one of the closest votes in the three-year history of D9Sports.Com’s Players of the Week, Santoriello edged Karns City’s Matt Carnahan (206 yards rushing, 4 touchdowns) by two voting points for the award.

Carnahan is one of fourteen players playing in District 9 leagues who are also being honored this week as honorable mention recipients. Their names appear below.

Those 29 teams include four teams who are non-District 9 teams (Sheffield, Eisenhower, Youngsville and West Shamokin) but play more than 75 percent of their games against District 9 opponents and compete for District 9 league titles. The awards are the only weekly awards given out in the District that represent the district as a whole.
