Austin Petrillo (Rockville, Ind. / Parke Heritage HS)

Petrillo was credited with six total tackles, including a tackle for a loss in the Pomeroys 54-26 victory at Bellarmine. He posted a pair of interceptions including a key one in the red zone just before halftime to stop a potential game-tying drive by the Knights before halftime. Petrillo also blocked a PAT kick in the third quarter which was eventually returned 98 yards for a defensive two point conversion. He intercepted his second pass of the contest and returned the ball to the Bellarmine 4-yard line for 61 yards which set up the final SMWC touchdown of the day.
