Three senior football players from Brentwood High School were named academic all-state.

The postseason recognition continues for Brentwood football players, who fought to a successful 10-2 season this past fall.  Seniors Nick Featherston, David Rivera and Evan Sigler were named academic all-state.  "We talk a lot about trying to excel in all areas of your life," said Coach Keith Herring in a Tuesday email to Patch.
