UGA commits earn TD Club's top awards
Newnan safety Alec Ogletree has been named the Bobby Dodd National High School Back of the Year, and Douglass defensive tackle Garrison Smith has been named the Bobby Dodd National High School Lineman of the Year.
Ogletree led Newnan to 25 wins against two losses in his junior and senior seasons and had 85 tackles and 40 receptions this past season. He was GHSF Daily's Class AAAAA defensive player of the year.
Smith is a four-year starter who was a bright spot for 1-9 Douglass. He was named co-defensive player of the year in Region 2-AAAAA.
Both have committed to Georgia.
The awards are selected by the Touchdown Club of Atlanta, and Ogletree and Smith will be honored at Georgia Tech on Feb. 13, when the TD Club also will announce its all-metro team.
