    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Gatorade® Recognizes Colorado Football Standout With Its National Player of the Year Award Byers becomes first lineman to win in award’s 19-year history Loveland, Colo. (December 11, 2003) – In its 19th year of honoring the nation’s elite high school athletes, Gatorade® Thirst Quencher, in partnership with Scholastic Coach & Athletic Director magazine, today announced Jeff Byers of Loveland High School in Loveland, Colo., as the 2003 Gatorade National High School Football Player of the Year. The award, which recognizes athletic achievement as well as the academic performance and overall character of its recipient, distinguishes Jeff as the nation’s best high school football player. The Gatorade National Advisory Board, a group of sportswriters and sport-specific experts from around the country, selected Jeff from the more than one million high school football players nationwide. Rated by many scouting services as the country’s top center, Jeff paved the way for Loveland’s running attack and did not allow a sack in three years as a starter. Defensively, he recorded 203 tackles in his senior season, 97 of them solo and 55 of them for a loss. In addition, he racked up 10 sacks and forced 14 fumbles, one of which he returned 75 yards for a touchdown in Loveland’s 50-0 state semifinal victory. Jeff capped off his high school career by leading Loveland High School to the Colorado 4A state championship, the school’s sixth overall and its second during his four years on the varsity. “Jeff is the rare individual who can absolutely dominate the game as a lineman.

Before a national television audience on ABC Monday night, America will learn if the San Diego Chargers’ offense – outfitted in its classic 1960s uniform – can move through the Pittsburgh Steelers in a matchup of 2004 division champions. San Diego (2-2) has won back-to-back games in impressive fashion. In the past two weeks, running back LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON has darted for 326 yards and five touchdowns while throwing a TD pass and adding 62 receiving yards for good measure. Quarterback DREW BREES has completed a whopping 38 of 46 passes (82.6 percent) with four touchdowns and no interceptions in those two wins. Pittsburgh (2-1), rested after a bye week, counters with a pass rush averaging one sack every 7.7 pass plays – best in the NFL. A defensive front seven with four All-Stars will challenge the hot Chargers. Offensively, despite his last name, running back WILLIE PARKER is anything but stationary, standing fifth in the AFC with 327 yards despite the bye. And oh, by the way, quarterback BEN ROETHLISBERGER wears a shiny 131.8 passer rating – the league’s highest.
