Cabot linebacker Payson Woods - FCB Scholar Athlete of the Week
LITTLE ROCK - Cabot starting linebacker Payson Woods has been selected by hootens.com as the First Community Bank Scholar Athlete of the Week in Arkansas.
More than 6,000 boys play high school football in the state. Woods (4.0 GPA, 29 ACT) is one of only 13 selected for the prestigious award presented by First Community.
Bank representatives David Daniel and Kevin Kenard recently surprised Woods with the announcement after a Cabot practice. Earlier this season, First Community presented the award to standout students at Vilonia, Harding Academy (Searcy), Batesville and Valley View.
A video featuring Woods' story is on hootens.com.
Cabot plays host to Little Rock Catholic this Friday.
First Community Bank is a locally owned and operated bank with 27 locations in Arkansas and Missouri.
