The Week 13 Cunningham Bounds Coastal Player of the Week had a huge night in a big road win in the second round of the playoffs last week.

Junior running back Noah Moss of St. Michael earned 14,563 votes – 63 percent of the 23,039 total ballots – to take the top spot in the voting from Week 2 of the Alabama High School Athletic Association state playoffs. The 6-foot-1, 190-pounder ran for 237 yards and 4 touchdowns on 37 carries in a 38-24 win over No. 2 Pleasant Grove in the Class 4A playoffs. Moss also had 5 catches for 38 yards and had a strip sack and fumble recovery on defense.

The No. 6 Cardinals (11-1) will travel to the Birmingham area again this week to play 9-3 Fairfield for a shot at the semifinals.

Vigor quarterback Dylan Jackson, subbing for the injured Sammy Dunn, got 5,233 votes – 23 percent – to finish second in the balloting. Jackson threw 3 touchdown passes as the No. 3 Wolves blanked Eufaula 19-0 on the road last week.

Vigor, 11-1 on the season, will host UMS-Wright (6-6) this week in the quarterfinals.

UMS-Wright defensive back David Lott blocked an extra point that proved to be the difference in the Bulldogs’ 7-6 win over Andalusia last week. Lott, a 5-9, 138-pound junior, also intercepted a pass in the defensive struggle.
