Rushing Touchdowns
“I just watched Kellen Harrison throw for four touchdowns, run for another and make an interception leading his team over mine in an unbelievable championship game. He is such a gamer and in leading his team to an undefeated season and state championship, he never left the field. My vote is: He has to be the Montana Gatorade Player of the Year. With the talent assembled on that field in the title game and the way he stood out, the difference he made in the game, to me it’s very clear.”
