Braves, Wolfpack grab grid honors
The Daily Inter Lake
Brock Osweiler's eye-popping numbers continue to pay dividends.
The 6-foot-8 Flathead junior quarterback was named Western AA's co-MVP on offense, along with Helena Capital quarterback Jared Hunt.
Osweiler completed 218 of 345 passes (63.2 percent) for 2,935 yards and 27 touchdowns with 11 interceptions. He also rushed for 405 yards and five touchdowns, leading the Braves to a 6-5 record and near-upset of Billings Senior in the first round of the Class AA playoffs.
Osweiler was one of nine Braves to earn all-state honors as voted upon by Class AA's head coaches.
Osweiler was named to the all-state first team, along with senior wide receiver Mike Gallagher, who caught 79 passes for 1,196 yards and 11 touchdowns.
Flathead's all-state second team picks were senior defensive end Josh Harris, senior safety Curtis Manning and junior offensive tackle Tyler Thomas.
Senior outside linebacker Pat Hergesheimer earned honorable mention, along with junior safety Bryce Stacy, junior offensive tackle Paul Streich, senior offensive guard Dustin Ozegovich and Manning, who was honored as a kicker after connecting on four of six field-goal attempts and 39 of 42 PATs.
The Braves earned plenty of all-conference accolades as well, with Harris, Manning (safety), Thomas, Gallagher and Osweiler making the first team.
Flathead's all-conference second team picks were Thomas (defensive line), senior inside linebacker David Lau, Hergesheimer, Stacy, senior cornerback Sam Tedrow, Streich, Ozegovich, junior wide receiver Travis Andrus (40 receptions, 478 yards, three touchdowns) and Manning (kicker).
Tedrow also earned second-team recognition at punt returner after returning 11 punts for 104 yards. Gallagher earned the same honors as a kickoff returner, totaling 282 yards and a touchdown on 12 returns.
Flathead senior center Ian Anderson earned all-conference honorable mention.
The Glacier Wolfpack went winless in its first season, but a pair of sophomore standouts earned all-conference honorable mention. Connor Fuller was honored at wide receiver after catching 50 passes for 425 yards and a touchdown, while running back Wiley Fusaro rushed for 242 yards and hauled in 47 receptions for 327 yards.
