On the Gridiron: 2009 All-Suncoast Team

Some have said that Quentin Williams is the best Suncoast quarterback ever. (Courtesy of the St. Petersburg Times)

Welcome to the first annual All-Suncoast Team brought to you by Examiner.com. We have assessed all of the statistics available along with first-hand knowledge of the programs in question to form what we believe is the ultimate team for the 2009 prep season.

For the defensive selections, we used the following system: Each stat was equal to a certain amount of points. (Tackles = 1 point, sack = 2 points, fumble recoveries = 1.5 points, forced fumbles = 1.5 points, interceptions = 3 points, blocked kicks = 3 points, passes defensed = 1 point, defensive/special teams touchdowns = 6 points, safety = 2 points)
