Delco Football Players of the Week: Chichester Profitt-ed in win over Chester
Cody Profitt was a playmaker for Chichester in last Saturday’s come-from-behind victory over Chester.
Profitt hauled in an eight-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter to put the Eagles ahead. On defense, the senior dominated from the linebacker position, registering eight tackles, two sacks and one forced fumble.
For his efforts, Profitt was named Del Val League player of the week by the Daily Times and Delaware County Football Coaches Association.
In the Central League, Springfield senior Kyle Long earned MVP honors after a stellar outing at wide receiver and in the defensive secondary. Long made 10 tackles, including the one that sealed the Cougars’ 14-7 win over Garnet Valley last Friday. Long finished with eight catches for 105 yards and a touchdown as Springfield stayed unbeaten and clinched a share of the Central League title.
