He capped off his spectacular high school career when it mattered most. In the Division II nonselect state championship game, Radford put the team on his back, delivering a monumental performance with 17 points, 17 rebounds, and seven blocks to secure a 45-38 victory over Wossman and earn the game's MVP award. Radford is a player to watch and coaches are calling for his services at the next level. Big, strong, skilled and high energy define his game. Where will Radford take his next level talents. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>All-State Selections</strong></h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are the outstanding players recognized for their performance this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":4} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>First Team</strong></h4> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2919439' first='Ben' last='Radford'], Brusly (6-5, Sr., 15.6 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2415478' first='Jayden' last='Coleman'], Vandebilt Catholic (5-11, Sr., 23.8 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2307970' first='Monte' last='Farmer'], Washington-Marion (6-8, Sr., 15.0 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Jakyris Jenkins, Plaquemine (6-1, Sr., 21.3 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li> [player_tooltip player_id='1679469' first='Jontae' last='Turpin Jr'] Wossman (5-10, Sr., 19.2 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":4} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Second Team</strong></h4> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='1543644' first='Malachi' last='Anderson'], Peabody (6-5, Sr., 13.0 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='3564671' first='Corey' last='Blake Jr.'] , Peabody (6-2, Fr., 15.0 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2194600' first='Christian' last='Clair'], Archbishop Shaw (6-1, So., 20.1 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='3557552' first='Jaydon' last='Francis'], Northside (6-2, Jr., 18.1 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='2758964' first='Ryan' last='Robertson'], St. Thomas More (6-5, Jr., 16.0 PPG)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":4} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Honorable Mention</strong></h4> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Chris Addison, Franklin Parish; Trevonta Allridge, Ellender; [player_tooltip player_id='3348645' first='Jason' last='Astorga'], McDonogh #35; [player_tooltip player_id='1680527' first='Jackson' last='Bates'], Booker T.
