Tyler Roth/WKVI Athlete of the Week 10-20-18
Our Tyler Roth/WKVI Athlete of the Week for this week is Jared Prater, a member of the Football Team at Knox High School.
Jared helped lead his team to arguably the biggest win in school history when they upset 10th-ranked Jimtown 21-14 in the opening game of the Sectional. The 6-1, 179 pound senior Wing Back and Safety came up with big plays on both sides of the ball. His 69-yard touchdown pass reception from Zach Rose gave the Redskins their winning score in the third quarter. Then, his interception of a Jimmies pass at the Redskin 4 yard line with 4:24 left in the game sealed Knox’ first win over Jimtown since 1989! He also came up with 3 tackles from his defensive secondary position.
Congratulations to Jared Prater of Knox High School our Tyler Roth/WKVI Athlete of the Week.
