Three-star quarterback and Syracuse commit, Lindsey Scott, was named Louisiana’s Gatorade Player of the Year, writes Scout.com’s Mike McAllister. “Lindsey Scott is an outstanding athlete,” B.R. Catholic High head coach Dale Weiner said in the Gatorade press release. “He hurts opponents with his running and his passing. They won a few down-to-the-wire games this season. I don’t think they win those without him.”
