This is what coaches mean when they ask is he, “is he coachable?”
Kenneth Walker shows eye contact, intent, and a serious interest in what his coach is teaching
Young athletes, this will take you further than you think

Congrats @LSTigerFootball on your FIRST-EVER state title… with zero D1 guys.
Meanwhile, across town @LSNActivities had the most loaded roster in MO for 4 years…and only 3 district titles to show for it.

Tomorrow morning, this vision becomes reality!
Beyond thrilled to finally see the joy for the first-ever winner and recognize the legacy of Andre and what he represented on and off the field.
🚨 BREAKING NEWS on @KCSportsNetwork 🚨
It's happening! For the first time in nearly 20 years, the @SimoneAwards have a NEW postseason honor.
Beginning this season, the Andre Maloney Memorial Award will be given annually to the Kansas City metro's outstanding defensive back.

Overjoyed to see @DantedatDixon of @PHTrojansFB take home the inaugural Andre Maloney Award as the KC Metro's most outstanding defensive back!
This is EXACTLY the type of player this honor was created for.
Like Andre, Dante has been a highlight reel on both sides of the ball, beyond his lockdown talents in coverage. And, like Andre, he's always shown a healthy mix of a fiery, competitive attitude with respect and humility, going as far as sending postseason thank-yous to those in the area who have covered, recognized and/or supported his career as a Trojan.
Undersized and under recruited but always positive in his strive to MiB (Make it BIG)!
Confident he'll be a proud ambassador of this @SimoneAwards award for years to come. 👏

So proud of @DantedatDixon on earning the Inaugural Andre Maloney Award for best DB in KC! Dante’s versatility (off/def/ret) reminds me so much of Andre. Dante will do a great job carrying on his legacy!

Overjoyed today knowing that the legacy of @Andre_D1MiB will proudly serve as the annual pinnacle that all high school defensive backs in the Kansas City metro aspire for. Truly a match made in heaven.
Thank you Wayne Orr and @SimoneAwards Board, @TimCallaghan19 and Montoya family and friends for bringing this vision to life for our local football community! 🥹🙌👏👑🏆
