Wonka, Jasper lead locall all-state football picks
CHENANGO COUNTY – Two-time all-state football players Paul Wonka of Oxford and Austin Jasper of Sherburne-Earlville are among seven area athletes receiving recognition today in a release by the New York State Sportswriters Association.
Wonka, a record-breaking running back, was a second team pick in Class D, while Jasper was also a second team selection, his honor coming in the Class C ranks. Also making the grade were Jake Mazzarella, Bainbridge-Guilford, a second-team Class D linebacker; and Mike Beckwith, Greene, a third team honoree at linebacker in Class C. Gaining honorable mention status were Kyle Edwards, Norwich, Class B; Chris Kehoe, Greene, Class C; and Kody Homann, Unadilla Valley, Class D.
Wonka became just the second Oxford back to post back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons. Despite missing one game due to injury, Wonka set a new Oxford school record for career rushing yards, and in his final game, established a new Chenango County rushing mark finishing with 3,726 yards.
Jasper, Sherburne-Earlville’s leading tackler, averaged 11 tackles per game while battling a knee injury throughout the season. “Austin’s physical play drew plenty of attention from opposing blocking schemes, yet he continued to be a force in the middle of our defense,” said S-E head football coach, Mike Jasper.
Mazzarella, chosen as a linebacker, made his name this season as the Bobcats’ fullback. In his first season as a full-time starting back, he broke the school’s single-season rushing record finishing with 1,362 yards, number one in Chenango County.
Beckwith, a three-year player for Greene, battled injuries in the latter portion of the season, but spearheaded the area’s top overall defense at linebacker, while also finishing second on the team in rushing.
