Randle was also the team’s top rusher with 674 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Defensive lineman D.D. Jones, who has verbally committed to Michigan, is the Defensive MVP. Putting together a stellar season, Jones recorded 72 tackles, a dozen tackles behind the line of scrimmage, two sacks and three fumble recoveries.
Completing the sweep of the individual awards is Coach of the Year Brad Bradshaw, who guided the Rams to an 11-2 record and into the state semifinals.
