Senior Parker Jones and sophomore Robert Brown were named to the 2016 Pennsylvania Football Writers Class AA All-State Team on Tuesday, December 21.

Jones was an All-State selection in the 2015 season, and backed his play up in 2016 with 96 tackles and 7 sacks from his defensive end position.

"It's great," Jones said. "I honestly wasn't worried about making the team this year, I was worried more about getting a win every week."

For Brown, this is his first All-State selection. Brown led the Hornets with 114 tackles, forced 3 fumbles, and had 3 sacks from his linebacker position.

"I didn't expect this at all," Brown said. "This feels amazing. I'm only a sophomore and this gives me extra motivation going into next season."

WellsboroFootball.com would like to congratulate Parker and Robert on their selections, and thank them for all their hard work and dedication during the season.
