Hutchinson Community College linebacker
Antwon Canady was the only Blue Dragon football player named to the first
team of the 2007 All-Jayhawk Conference football team, which was released on
Monday by the league office.
Canady was one of four Blue Dragons to earn
all-league honors. He is joined by second-team selection, wide receiver
Danny McEvoy, and honorable mention players Tim Erwin and Brandon Kush.
Canady, a 6-foot-1, 236-pound redshirt-freshman
from Swainsboro, Ga., was the Blue Dragons’ leading tackler this season with
106 tackles, 52 solo stops. He is the Jayhawk Conference leader in tackles
per game at 11.8 tackles per game, third in the league in tackles for loss
(17.5) and ninth in quarterback sacks (7).
In nine games, Canady had double-figure
tackles in seven games, including a career-high 15 three times against
Coffeyville, Dodge City and Butler. Canady had three fumble recoveries and
five quarterback hurries in a spectacular season for the Blue Dragons under
first-year coach Rion Rhoades.
McEvoy, a 6-5, 210-pound receiver from
Leavenworth, made the most of his sophomore season with a 45 receptions for
517 yards and six touchdowns – all three marks are team highs. He also had
two rushing touchdowns and blocked in a punt in the season finale against
Independence. McEvoy put those numbers up in roughly 7.25 games played. He
missed the season opener and was injured in the second quarter against
Independence.
McEvoy’s 45 receptions tied for the fourth in
single-season HCC history. His 61 career receptions are third on the Blue
Dragon career list.
Erwin is a 6-2, 240-pound defensive end from
Hoxie. He led all HCC defensive linemen in tackles with 36, 21 solo stops.
Erwin had five tackles for loss, including 3.5 quarterbacks sacks and eight
quarterback hurries. He had one forced fumble, one fumble recovery and one
pass break-up.
Kush is a third-year 6-4, 280-pound sophomore
defensive tackle from Louisburg. He had 16 total tackles, nine solo tackles
and 3.5 tackles for loss. He also had four quarterback hurries. Kush was
particularly adept at keeping offensive linemen busy to let the HCC
linebackers rack up stop after stop.
