Percy Law was named as an “All Conference” and “All State” player and will be remembered by Ringgold fans for his elusive running and speed. Percy posted a record of 120 yards/game with an amazing 1,361 yards rushing. His passing stats were 31 of 68 for 637 yards. He’s accredited with 16 TDs running and 4 passing TDs. Ringgold’s Coach Matt Humbert believes Gannon will give Percy a shot at quarterback but may decide to use him as a slot wide receiver.

Alfon Cook was also named as an “All
Conference” player. He logged 23 yards per carry out of the backfield for a total of 364 yards. Coach Humbert consistently relied on him for kick returns. His punt return numbers were 6/189/32. He returned 10 kickoffs for 323 yards. Cook was third in the team for points scored with 48 for his 8 TDs. It’s not clear at this point how Slippery Rock will place Cook, but we’re certain his speed will be utilized.

Law and Cook are likely to see each other during upcoming football seasons, but it will be from opposite sides of the field. Gannon and Slippery Rock are in the same conference and will play against each other in the fall.
