A year after COVID-19 wiped it out, the annual North-South All Star Football Classic is back on the schedule. Of course, that is if the pandemic does not cause woes once again.

 

For now, however, it is good news as the North Bears will take on the South Cardinals. The game is set for June 19 at South Charleston High School’s Black Eagle Stadium.

 

The game will begin at 1 p.m.

 

News recently came out with the release of the rosters. And as expected, the North will have representation from Bridgeport High School.

 

The Indians’ Devin Hill and Hayden Moore will be part of the North roster. During their three years on varsity that included this year’s COVID-interrupted season, the pair helped the Indians have a 32-4 run that included a state championship in 2019 in Class AA. This year, due to cancelations, BHS was ruled the Class AAA runner-up despite only playing – and winning – one game in the postseason.

 

Hill is a two-time all-state lineman, earning first team honors in 2019 in Class AA and first team honors in 2020 in Class AAA. He was also the Big 10 Conference offensive lineman of the year thanks to anchor a line that rushed for 385.9 yards per game.

 

Moore was one of the big breakout players this year for BHS. He finished the 2020 season with 554 rushing yards with 11 touchdowns and caught five passes for 132 yards and two more scores. He also shined in the secondary on defense where he was selected as second-team defensive back. Moore had 50 tackles, four pass breakups and two fumble recoveries.

 

The numbers helped earn Moore second-team Class AAA All State honors as a defensive back. He was also a first team member on the Big 10 team.

 

There are five players, including Hill and Moore, from Harrison County on the roster. The others include Robert C. Byrd’s Bryson Lucas, Sayveon Biafore of Liberty, and Payton Hawkins of Lincoln.
