POMEROY––Congratulations go out to two Pomeroy Pirate football athletes who were honored with First-Team All-League selections following the 2022 football campaign. Trevin Kimble and Trace Roberts garnered recognition for their offensive and defensive talents along with teammate Colby Ledgerwood, also an offensive-line First-Team selection.
Kimble is a senior whose contributions on both sides of the ball helped the Pirates to its 8-3 season that wrapped up with a playoff loss to Wellpinit. Kimble rushed for about 1,502 yards and scored 21 rushing touchdowns, according to unofficial statistics compiled from weekly game reports. Kimble completed about 42% of the passes he threw, and accounted for nine passing touchdowns.
Roberts, a P.H.S. junior, not only worked on the offensive line, moving defenders for ball carriers and protecting Pirate passers, but he made about 4.3 tackles per game, 33 solo tackles and 21 assists.
Sophomore Colby Ledgerwood was also named to the Offense First Team for his offensive line work.
