St. Paul duo repeats on All-Ohio first team

COLUMBUS — St. Paul senior standouts Tyler Perkins and Will Stieber repeated to the All-Ohio first team on Monday. The Ohio Prep Sportswriters Association released the Division VII teams. Those selected to the first or second team in the Northwest District were eligible for all-state honors. Stieber finished as one of the most decorated defenders in the deep history of St. Paul All-Ohio players. The linebacker is one of just a two players — along with Terry Taylor (1996-98) out of the 73 All-Ohio players since 1991 under head coach John Livengood to be named to an All-Ohio team (above honorable mention) three times. In 12 games this season, Stieber finished with 127 tackles (five for loss), two sacks, four hurries, two fumble recoveries and four pass breakups. He also led the Flyers (10-2) offensively with 1,342 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns. Stieber, who was All-Ohio third team in 2019 and first team last season, finished with 365 tackles in 33 games (11.1 per game) over the past three seasons. Perkins, who is headed to NCAA Division I Iowa State University on a full scholarship, repeated to the first team after he punted 24 times for 976 yards (40.7 average), including a season-best of 56 yards. He was also 39-of-43 on extra point attempts and made three field goals as a kicker. Earning second team All-Ohio honors for St. Paul was senior offensive tackle Zach Pocos, who was an anchor on the offensive line this season. He was the only returning starter entering the season, and led a unit that totaled 4,152 yards (346 per game), including 3,336 yards (278 average) rushing. Junior running back Quincey Crabbs was an honorable mention choice for the Flyers after he ran 177 times for 1,110 yards and 15 TDs to compliment Stieber in the backfield. Also from the area, Monroeville senior Isaac Roeder was third team as a defensive back after he finished with 96 tackles and an interception in 11 games for the Eagles. Plymouth junior running back Shae Sparks and South Central senior wide receiver Carson Music also were honorable mention choices. Sparks ran 172 times for 1,300 yards and 19 TDs for the Big Red. Music caught 67 passes for 882 yards with 9 TDs for the Trojans. Edon senior quarterback Drew Gallehue and McComb lineman Eli Franks were named the Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year. In a 45-44 loss at St. Paul on Sept. 11, Gallehue finished 39-of-47 for 516 yards and 6 TDs.
