Athletic Excellence

The state’s returning Gatorade Player of the Year, the 6-foot, 180-pound senior defender led the Admirals to a 19-2-4 record and the Class 6A state championship this past season. LeBlanc anchored a defense that allowed just 16 goals in 25 games and recorded 12 shutouts. A two-time First Team All-State selection, he also chipped in offensively with three goals and two assists.
