Zacch Pickens made it a clean sweep of the top high school football awards.
The T.L. Hanna defensive lineman and South Carolina commit was named the state’s Mr. Football on Saturday. He is the first defensive player to win the award since former Gamecock and current Houston Texans defensive end Jadeveon Clowney did it in 2010.
Pickens previously won SC’s Gatorade Player of the Year and was named the state’s top lineman by the SC Football Coaches Association. He is the 10th future Gamecock to win Mr. Football and second straight with Dakereon Joyner winning it last year.
