Vote for the 2012 Mastodon Offensive Lineman of the Year

The offensive lineman is essentially the savior of the team's quarterback. When teams are relatively small, like the Mastodons, there may only be one lineman at a time, but sure enough they block the defenders and protect the quarterback long enough for a big score. Another big aspect of the offensive lineman is to get the ball to the quarterback successfully. They have to work on their perfection of the snap. The biggest men on the field don't get nearly enough credit for holding the offense together. Here are the nominees for the Mastodon offensive lineman of the year. Vote at the bottom of the page.


Collin Giguere. In the one game that Big Tuna showed up to, he shined a new light on snapping the ball. As the Leicester Wolverine JV football team's starting center, he knows his way around snapping and blocking, almost simultaneously. Tuna boasted three pancakes in his lone game of the season.

Joe Cicero. He snapped the majority of balls for the Mastodons, but he wasn't as much of a blocker. His six pancakes ranked second on the team, but even though he wasn't much of a blocker, you could count him to be successful on the line of scrimmage.

Alex Lach. Immediately named as a strong candidate for a surefire offensive lineman/center, Lach led the team with ten pancakes. His main priority was blocking as he never quite caught too many balls. Alex may not have been the best snapper, but the effort was certainly there.
