Former Jasper Bulldog and current Missouri Tiger Sean Weatherspoon has been named Third Team All American in football by the sports writers of the Associated Press.
Weatherspoon, who graduated from Jasper in 2006, was a member of the Bulldog football team that played Gilmer in the 2004 class 3-A State Championship. Weatherspoon and his Jasper teammates fell just short of the state title in a 47-49 loss to Gilmer. However, many said it was one of the best high school football games ever played in Texas.
Weatherspoon took his talent to the University of Missouri in 2006 and is now a junior. At Missouri, Weatherspoon has been credited with 3 interceptions, 138 tackles, and four quarterback sacks.
Weatherspoon will be in action again this year in his home state on December 29th when Missouri meets Northwestern in the Alamo Bowl in San Antonio's Alamodome.
The game will be broadcast at 7:00 PM on ESPN.
