Biafra Okoronkwo of Loyola Blakefield is a star on the football field and in the classroom. 

He's a hardworking running back who scored an 85-yard touchdown run against Boys Latin this season. Okoronkwo is a team player, always crediting his teammates for his success. 

Off the field, Biafra excels in the classroom. He's hoping to attend an Ivy League school next year. Following the football season, he received the Dean McNeal Award, given to a student who truly puts others above himself. 

He's now the Gardiner Wolf Furniture Student Athlete of the Week.
