Private schools POW: Kyle Ahmad, Bishop McGuinness

There are just so many weapons for Bishop McGuinness when all the boys are healthy. Camden Tharp is effective as both a runner and a passer. Jameel Whitney is the bruising back and anchor on defense. LaRone Richardson is your workhorse who can also bust a big one.
And then there’s Kyle Ahmad. He’s your game-breaker. A person that if you need one play to take it to the house, you call his number.
Ahmad wasn’t the only Irish player to score two touchdowns in the 49-0 win vs. Tecumseh, but seeing the team click like that was huge and earns him the Private Schools Player of the Week.
Ahmad scored on 31-yard run in the first quarter and and also on a 28-yard pass from Tharp as the Irish roll into a huge quarterfinal matchup at Sallisaw. His speed is lethal, my friends.
With all these weapons, it’s tough to contain them all. And if all the weapons are healthy (as they’re now on their way to being), well, look out for the Irish.
Other contenders
Barry Sanders, RB, Heritage Hall: Just another day at the office for the sophomore. He scored four touchdowns (three rushing, one receiving) as the Chargers blanked Meeker 35-0.
LaRone Richardson, RB, McGuinness: Made his return after missing the final two (almost 3) games with a high ankle sprain and scored twice.
Travis Harrison, Heritage: Provided a huge spark when he took a blocked punt 15 yards for a touchdown to help Chargers cruise.
Camden Tharp, QB, McGuinness: He has made a believer out of me. He’s no longer a question mark for the Irish. He threw two touchdowns and ran for another.
Irish and Charger defense: Neither squad gave up a point with Heritage giving up 144 yards and McGuinness allowing 183 yards of offense.
OCS defense: Saints didn’t lose to Oklahoma Bible because of their defense. In a tough battle, OBA blanked OCS 7-0, scoring in the second quarter.
