Brock Phillip may not have much varsity experience, but he has played quarterback ever since he started playing football in fourth grade.
He showed the moxie of a veteran on Thursday.
The St. Francis senior quarterback, in his debut with his new team and first varsity start after transferring from Geneva, made it a memorable one.
Phillip led two touchdown drives in the final seven minutes to rally St. Francis from 10 points down. Phillip’s 4-yard touchdown pass to Dario Milivojevic was the difference in a 38-34 win.
For the game, Phillip completed 19 of 26 passes for 346 yards and four touchdowns. He also ran for 38 yards and a score.
For his efforts, Phillip was selected as the Friday Night Drive Team of the Week MVP. Here is his Q&A with sports editor Joshua Welge.
