With all due respect to the two lineman from Bowman, I really feel that Tony Vadell of Bishop Ryan got snuffed. It was clear that he was better than these two because during the Bowman game, he was pretty dominant against the two of them. And i amnot saying this because i don't think they are good, but i feel that Tony should have been recognized before the two of them.
