PLANO, Texas, Sept. 22, 2021 – The top high school football stars have been recognized in week 4 of the 2021 Built Ford Tough Texas High School Football Player of the Week program. Now in its sixteenth year, the program is back again. Since 2006, the program has recognized outstanding student-athletes. The program has celebrated many future college and professional standouts during their Texas high school careers.
This week’s winning athletes join a long list of remarkable players recognized for their exceptional efforts.
Private Schools: Levi Hancock, Senior, QB, Brazos Christian School
Mascot: Eagles
Opponent: Temple Central Texas Christian
This was Levi Hancock’s first game back after sitting out with a minor injury - and boy did he come out firing! He amassed 438 yards and seven touchdowns. He went 16 for 21 passing for 357 yards and five TD’s. He connected with eight different players and had two touchdowns of over 50 yards. He also managed to gain 81 yards on 10 carries including two TD’s.
The Texas A&M commit also led by example by staying behind to ensure the locker room was picked up and clean as he does after most games.
“Levi Hancock is an incredible young man, leader and football player. He demonstrates remarkable discipline, work ethic and is an amazing servant leader. His teammates would follow him anywhere. He focuses with laser-like precision on his goals. He has already committed to Texas A&M as one of the nation's elite long snappers and in doing so fulfilled a lifelong dream that he has been working towards for years.”
- Brazos Christian Head Coach Ben Hoffmeier
