Citizens Bank Player of the Week - Round 3

Trousdale County senior Cameron Rankins is the Citizens Bank Player of the Week for his performance in the third round of the TSSAA playoffs.

Rankins rushed 30 times for 173 yards and three touchdowns and added an interception in a 21-13 win at Watertown in the Class 2A quarterfinals.

Rankins won the fans’ vote as well, taking 62 percent of more than 1,100 votes. 615 Preps Podcast hosts Chris Brooks and Scott Burton split their official votes, as Brooks voted for Summit junior quarterback Destin Wade, while Burton sided with Brentwood senior quarterback Cade Granzow. Since the voting finished in a three-way tie, the fans’ vote served as the tiebreaker.

Rankins joins the growing list of award winners for the 2020 season:
