New Lenox State Farm Agent Kevin Molloy honors a football player every week

State Farm agent Kevin Molloy, along with WJOL 1340 AM and the Pigskin Preview tandem of Edgy Tim of Rivalsports.com and the Hall of Fame Coach Joe Rodeghero, have named Minooka high school running back Noah Ellens their week five Player of The Week. He received this award for his effort on Friday, Sept. 21, when he rushed for 215 yards on just 17 carries in the Minooka’s 31-27 win over rival Plainfield North High School. Congratulations to Ellens for this honor.

Each week, Kevin Molloy State Farm, in conjunction with WJOL Pigskin Preview, recognizes a player of the week from the area high schools. This is year two of Molloy and WJOL partnering with Pigskin Preview to champion this award. A banquet will be held on December 5th to honor the weekly winners.
