Who Was This FL HS Superstar? Andre Reese/Pierson Taylor

Recommended Posts


Gatorman recently had a thread about Mr Football winners.  Here is the winner from 2002, Andre Reese of Pierson Taylor.  Pierson is a small town in Volusia County.  That was an exciting time in Volusia County, since Xavier Lee was over at Seabreeze lighting up scoreboards.

Reese earned Class 2A Player of the Year honors in back-to-back years, even though his team had limited success.  In his senior year, Reese rushed for 2347 yards (9.9 yards per carry) and scored 37 TD's  He also accumulated 119 tackles, 4 INT's and 4 fumble recoveries on defense. 

Reese's success in D1 was limited by his grades.  He attended a couple of junior colleges, where he ultimately played as a linebacker.  He is now a grade school teacher in Deland.

Cool stuff OldSchool... My son played safety his freshman year (JV 2000) against Seabreeze. Xavier Lee was exciting to watch and you knew he was going to be special.
