Brady Brock of Hebron and Demari Ruth of Denton Ryan were named the K104/1-800 Truck Wreck Beast of the Week on Tuesday. The honor recognizes student-athletes from the Dallas and Fort Worth areas who delivered exceptional performances during the tenth week of the Texas high school football season.
The selection comes with a financial component for the schools. Amy Witherite and 1-800 Truck Wreck will donate $2,000 to the Hebron football program and $2,000 to the Denton Ryan football program. These funds are part of the station's ongoing recognition series for local high school sports.
Brock earned the offensive award for his performance against Flower Mound. The senior quarterback led Hebron to a 42-41 victory after the team trailed by 20 points. He accounted for 380 total yards and four touchdowns. Brock recorded 266 passing yards and 114 rushing yards. He threw two passing touchdowns and scored two rushing touchdowns. Hebron erased the deficit in the final eight minutes of the game to secure a playoff berth.
Ruth received the defensive award for his effort against Azle. The senior linebacker helped Denton Ryan win by a score of 49-6. He recorded five solo tackles and one assisted tackle. His stats also include three tackles for loss, one sack, and two quarterback pressures. His play disrupted the Azle offensive rhythm throughout the contest.
The recognition is open to fan nomination. Listeners can submit names for the following week's award through the MyK104.com website. The station selects recipients based on their on-field contributions during the previous week of games.
