Name: Nick Frandsen
Number: 22
Position: WR/DB
Sport: Football
Year: Senior
School: Totino-Grace
Information: Frandsen took advantage of the moment...or should we say both moments. He caught two tipped passes in the fourth quarter in the Eagles 28-21 win over St. Thomas Academy in the Class 4A Semifinals. The first was on defense as he intercepted a Cadets pass. The second, on the ensuing drive, was in the end zone and came from his own quarterback, which turned out to be the game-winning TD. He caught five passes for 111 yards and 2TD on the day.
