SQUARE UP: The 2020 All-VYPE Defensive Teams
Square up.
Yes, offenses steal the headlines but defenses win championships. It's a tried-and-true formula... see Katy and North Shore, who really rely on defense for winning big over the decades.
This season, offenses lit up scoreboards like never before but these elite athletes slowed them down, tackling in space, pressuring the QBs, and picking off balls.
Check out the 2020 All-VYPE Defense Teams.
