Three Honored by Football Foundation

The San Fernando Valley chapter of the National Football Foundation has announced that three players have been selected by their high schools as athletes of the week.

Tailback-defensive back Darnell Hendricks of Taft, quarterback Sean Fitzgerald of Agoura and tight end-linebacker Dave Monheim of Westlake were selected by coaches at their respective schools.

The foundation plans to honor a player from each school in the Valley area by the end of the season, publicist Dick Whitney said. Each player selected will be honored at a postseason banquet and will receive a foundation T-shirt.
