Western Guilford’s Brock Stadnik Receives 2012 Under Armour All-America Jersey

[Sept. 30, 2011] GREENSBORO, N.C. – Brock Stadnik, a senior football player from Western Guilford High School, was presented his honorary game jersey at the American Family Insurance Selection Tour for the 2012 Under Armour All-America High School Football Game Thursday afternoon in front of over 1,200 students and faculty at Western Guilford High School in Greensboro, N.C. The event was part of the four-month American Family Insurance Selection Tour for the Under Armour All-America Game.

Stadnik is one of 90 players selected to compete in the fifth-annual Under Armour All-America Game presented by American Family Insurance, a nationally televised competition spotlighting the country’s top high school seniors. The 2012 Under Armour All-America Game is slated for Jan. 5, 2012, at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla., and will be televised on ESPN.

Stadnik is currently ranked No. 58 overall in the ESPNU Top 150 and No. 11 at offensive tackle, and will be attending South Carolina next fall.

“I want to thank my family, my coaches and Western Guilford football,” Stadnik said. “This honor really means a lot to me. I’m really excited to play in the game.”

The national Selection Tour sponsored by American Family Insurance is an expansion of the Under Armour All-America Game. As part of American Family Insurance’s involvement, the events will raise awareness around teen driving safety and recognize the student athletes, as well as the coaches, families and communities who have helped make these players’ dreams a reality.

“These athletes are achieving their dreams as result of their own dedication and the support of their coaches and teammates, their families and friends,” said Deborah Peterson, American Family Insurance’s customer relationship marketing director. “In turn, they are spreading the teen safe driving message to other students in the hope that they, too, will be able to reach their dreams.”

The American Family Insurance Selection Tour for the Under Armour All-America Game continues tomorrow, when Ifeadi Odenigbo (Centerville High School – Dayton, Ohio), Keith Marshall (Millbrook High School – Raleigh, N.C.) and Alex Ross (Jenks High School – Tulsa, Okla.) will be presented with their honorary Under Armour All-America Game jerseys at their respective schools.
