McCabe heads up All-NW Iowa team
StoryDiscussionBy Terry Hersom - thersom@siouxcityjournal.com | Posted: Thursday, December 17, 2009 12:00 am | No Comments Posted

Font Size:Default font sizeLarger font sizeSIOUX CITY -- A basketball scholarship at the University of Iowa is already signed and sealed, but Zach McCabe's farewell to football was certainly an autumn to remember.

Finishing off his third season as the starting quarterback for Bishop Heelan, believed to be an unprecedented achievement, the 6-7, 220-pounder passed for a school-record 2,461 yards, connecting on 170 of 277 passes.

While slinging 21 touchdown throws, McCabe was intercepted just six times. The last of those was a pick in the end zone, foiling a last-minute drive as Heelan lost a 21-14 state quarterfinal playoff game at Harlan, which succeeded the Crusaders as Class 3A state champs.

And, it was another game at Harlan, an early season clash, that produced the only other loss for Heelan and McCabe, the most valuable player on The Journal's 2009 All-Northwest Iowa team. The Heelan star started all 39 games in a three-year span in which the Crusaders went 35-4, or 32-1 outside of its 3-3 mark against Harlan.

This 10-2 Heelan squad is clearly dominant throughout the All-Northwest Iowa selections. However, several more outstanding teams have multiple honorees, including Class 2A state runner-up Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley, Class A state champion Southern Cal of Lake City, and 8-man state champ Armstrong-Ringsted.

B-H/RV quarterback Josh Vander Maten, a fourth-year starter at point guard for Boyden-Hull, directed the football co-op to 13 consecutive wins before a state championship game loss to Solon.

Vander Maten, who passed for 2,492 yards and 29 touchdowns, joined McCabe on the All-Northwest first team as the utility choice after his Nighthawks became the fourth straight District 1 team to meet Solon for the 2A crown.

Central Lyon/George-Little Rock had played in the last three 2A finals, losing the last two after a championship in 2006.

The first-team backfield also includes Armstrong-Ringsted's Tyler Tonderum, the state's leading rusher with 2,314 yards and a whopping 56 touchdowns. The 5-10, 190-pound senior shattered the state's eight-player career rushing mark, finishing with 6,389 yards.

Two more first-team backs are Theo Bartman of Western Christian, who rushed for 1,761 yards and 30 touchdowns, and Jesse Selgeby of West Lyon, who collected 1,697 yards and 22 scores.

Selgeby and his West Lyon teammates, who dropped an early non-district game with Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley's eventual 2A runners-up, wound up 10-2 after losing a 24-21 Class 1A state quarterfinal thriller with Council Bluffs St. Albert. The win helped St. Albert finish off a 14-0 state championship campaign with far easier triumphs of 49-21 over Prairie Valley and 35-0 over South Winneshiek.

Bartman, meanwhile, helped a fast-emerging program at Western Christian enjoy its best season ever, winding up 10-2 with both losses to Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley.

The first team also includes two of the state's more productive pass receivers, both from Sioux City. Heelan's Nick Berger caught 69 passes for 982 yards and East's Britt Anderson had 75 receptions for 923 yards. That ranked Anderson sixth in the state (all classes) for receptions while Berger ranked ninth. Meanwhile, Berger was 12th and Anderson 13th in receiving yardage.

A massive offensive line includes Iowa recruit Brandon Scherff of Denison-Schleswig, a 6-5, 300-pounder who was the starting varsity quarterback as recently as early last season. Jason Pomerenke of Sioux Center (6-6, 300), Tyler Bos of West Lyon (6-7, 295), Jeff Van Den Top of Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley (6-5, 230) and Ethan Kroll of Hinton (6-3, 225) were also accorded first-team laurels.

Cole Heissel, a 6-6, 240-pounder from Le Mars Gehlen Catholic, heads up the first-team defensive line, which also includes Heelan's Tyler Cutler, Sergeant Bluff-Luton's Ryan Rozeboom and East junior Mike Malek.

Nate Van Ginkel, a two-way standout who was also Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley's leading pass receiver, is joined at linebacker by Heelan's George Wakeman, East's Kyle Gogel, and West Lyon's Brendan Ter Wee. Wakeman led Heelan in tackles for two seasons in a row.

First-team defensive backs are Christopher Carlson of Akron-Westfield and a pair of athletes who also played quarterback, North's Danny Rudeen and MOC-Floyd Valley's Davis Bloemendaal.

The first-team kicker is East's Mitch Amundson, who sent 38 of his 50 kickoffs to the end zone, an automatic touchback, while converting 23 of 26 extra points and 11 of 19 field goals, the longest a 49-yarder.

I know this is a long post but I wanted to congratulate the team on an outstanding year. Congrats to Jessie Selgeby on becoming the all time leading rusher (and everyone who blocked for him). Congrats to all the boys that were named to the various all state and all district and all region teams. Congrats to Coaches Rozeboom and Childress for their district coaching awards and congrats to Brendan TerWee for being named district defensive MVP. I am really looking forward to next year and I hope all the younger players are working hard to get ready for next season. GO BIG BLUE!!
