Weymiller also battled back from an injury to be a football star. His performance in Peninsula’s win over Lakes to clinch the league title was stellar — five catches for 149 yards and two touchdowns, and a passing TD to boot.

“If it’s not a win, it’s not good stuff,” he said. “My pitching, in the end, didn’t give us a chance to win.”
