Coach Chuck Kassick's quote: "Mason is without question one of our leaders. He was voted as a captain this season (as a junior). He's our leading passer, rusher, scorer and one of our leading tacklers. But he never lets any individual accolades get in the way of the team goals. He's one of the hardest working in-season and out. I can't say enough about him, and that translated exactly to the (Curwensville) game. He pushed through adversity and let his ability shine when we needed it the most."
