Honored the week of September 21, 2023
Week 4’s Greene & Phillips Player of the Week, Attorney David Greene joined Emily Cochran to present the award to Daphne Trojans 6′ 2″ junior quarterback Jamar Malone.
Jamar had an incredible performance in Friday’s victory over the Davidson Warriors, passing for 323 yards and three touchdowns through the air. He also added 48 rushing yards and two more touchdowns on the ground. What an impressive all-around game helping lead his team to a crucial win.
Jamar was very humble when accepting the award, giving credit to his teammates for their roles in the success. As a quarterback, he clearly understands the team aspect of the game and that individual stats are a reflection of everyone’s contributions. At the same time, he acknowledges there is always room for improvement and seems focused on continued development.
Coach Kenny King provided insightful perspective on Jamar’s abilities from both a physical and mental standpoint. With not only tremendous athletic gifts but also exceptional football IQ,
On Malone’s 5 touch downs, David Greene commented, that’s phenomenal for a quarterback, “This young man is someone for everybody to watch. He’s got a great career here at Daphne High School, but the next level is going to be something special for this young man.”
Be sure to keep an eye on Jamar Malone and the Daphne Trojans going forward. It should be exciting to see what this dynamic junior quarterback can accomplish both this season and in the future.
