Park Hill gridiron standout selected as U.S Army All-American

After a standout season, Park Hill High School defensive lineman Ondre Pipkins was named to the U.S. Army All-American team last Friday in a ceremony held at Park Hill High School.

Pipkins will play in the Army All-American All-Star game Jan. 7, 2012 in San Antonio, Texas featuring the nation’s top 90 high school seniors as the East takes on the West. Accompanying Pipkins, will be his high school head coach Greg Reynolds and some members of his staff. The U.S. Army All-American game has in recent years featured the likes of NFL players such as Adrian Peterson, Mark Sanchez, and Tim Tebow.

Pipkins was also named first team all-state last week and will attend and play at the University of Michigan next year.
