The Touchdown Club of Gwinnett held its season-ending banquet on Monday night at the Gwinnett Place Marriott, honoring the county's best from this high school football season.
More than 100 players received some sort of award from the club, which also handed out honorable mention nods to an additional 72 players. Brookwood and Norcross players took home six of the top individual awards, with three players from each program earning an honor. The Broncos' Kenny Miles was named Athlete of the Year while teammates Eric Grube (Offensive Lineman of the Year) and Dawson Zimmerman (Specialist of the Year) also got individual awards. Norcross' Brice Butler was Wide Receiver of the Year, joining teammates Dion Dubose (Linebacker of the Year) and Tyler Maloof (Defensive Back of the Year) with awards. Other award winners were: North Gwinnett's Michael Tamburo (Quarterback of the Year), Central Gwinnett's Diante Drake (Running Back of the Year), Mill Creek's Austin Wilson (Tight End of the Year) and Buford's Omar Hunter (Defensive Lineman of the Year).
