Announcing the 2024: All GZP Team Selections

Nov 15, 2024·By Green Zone Staff

1st Team All-GZP

The 2024 All GZP Team selections are here. These athletes have shown exceptional talent and big play ability throughout the season. We are proud to recognize their hard work and achievements.

*Mason Starke (Seminole) has the potential to be this year's Player of the Year, and for good reason. He has compiled an impressive stat line that ranks among the best!

Jershaun Newton leads our All County Team into the future collegiately as he heads to the University of Illinois as possibly our first 2x POY but also as historically one of the Top 3 players to ever play in the county. He currently sits at 98 touchdowns and is 4 behind former Calvary Quarterback Jacob Drackett (Air Force) who sits at 102 touchdowns!

*Newton stands alone!

Jershaun Newton is poised to be recognized as one of the greatest players in CCC's history, particularly if he secures a state title in the future. He has achieved remarkable feats that set him apart from the rest. His impressive resume will serve as a benchmark that may be challenging for others to replicate. Notably, he is regarded as the top player in the county and is also considered among the finest in the state. Mr. Newton has proven himself time and again as a pivotal player for the Marauders, and he’s determined to cement his legacy as a State Champion. With two consecutive postseason appearances under his belt, he’s primed to make it a third, as his team is once again primed for success. Furthermore, if he achieves this goal, Newton will undoubtedly secure another Player of the Year award and become the first player to accomplish this remarkable feat. The sky is truly the limit for Newton. He has surpassed every expectation, and over the past four years, we have been privileged to witness his undeniable greatness!
