The shifty running back closed out a stellar postseason by rushing for 125 yards and the eventual game-winning touchdown in a 14-7 win over St. Helena in the North Coast Section Div. V championship on Dec. 5. The win clinched Salesian’s second straight NCS title and third in four seasons. In three playoff games, Hillary rushed for 443 yards and six TDs. His biggest game came in the semifinals when he rushed for 207 yards three scores as the Pride defeated St. Vincent-Petaluma.
IN HIS OWN WORDS: “It feels great to win back-to-back championships. I just want to share the moment with my teammates because we knew it would be hard, but we came in here and get the W. Just like we worked for.”
Honorable mentions:
Adam Remotto: The Campolindo senior fullback and receiver had five postseason TDs through Dec. 13, including a pair of TD catches in a 35-14 CIF NorCal Div. III bowl win over Sutter.
