Nosovitch, seven other locals on "Big 33 Hot Juniors" list

FROM KEITH GROLLER

I covered the game, but did not get a program from the Big 33 Classic last week in Hershey.

One of my friends did purchase a program, and, evidently, within that program there was a list of the state's "Hot 100 Juniors" and "Hot 50 Sophomores."

According to the explanation given, these two lists "represent a cooperative effort on the part of representatives from the PSFCA. It is the first list of its kind to be compiled exclusively by high school coaches. The Ultimate Football Academy (UFA) is a division of the Big 33 Scholarship Organization and is working in partnership with the PSFCA to develop the best high school prospects as a continuance of the PNC Big 33 Football Classic."

So basically, these are the guys the PSFCA is already eyeing for future Big 33 appearances.

The list of juniors is led by -- you know who -- that Nosovitch kid from Central Catholic.

The rest of the "Hot Juniors."

Quarterback -- Dan Harding, Nazareth.

Running Backs -- James Middleton, Easton

Wide Receivers -- Adam Bridgeforth, Nazareth; Kevin Gulyas, Central Catholic.

Linebackers -- Andrew Harris, Whitehall; Nick Sharga, Northampton.

Defensive Backs -- Noah Robb, Central Catholic.

And, five more kis made the "Hot Sophomores" list. They were:

Tight Ends -- Caleb Johnson, Northern Lehigh.

Running Backs -- Matt Bonshak, Whitehall; Austin Brown, Easton; Colin McDermott, Central Catholic.

Offensive Line -- Aaron Genevese, Whitehall.

You see that CCHS is well-represented on this list, but so is one of the Vikings' top PIAA 3A rivals -- Archbishop Wood.

Wood placed six players on the "Hot Juniors" list.

They are running backs Brandon and Desmond Peoples, tight end/defensive end Colin Thompson, linemen Frank Taylor and Brandon Arcidiacono, and defensive back Nate Smith.
