Miami Dolphins Announce Week 3 PlayFootball Award Winners

Miami, FL – The Miami Dolphins announced their PlayFootball Week 3 award winners in a program designed to celebrate youth football in South Florida. For each home game, the Dolphins will identify a high school coach of the week, high school player of the week, youth player of the week and team mom of the week. Award recipients will receive tickets to a Dolphins home game, be presented with a plaque on the field at Hard Rock Stadium and receive acknowledgement of their accomplishment in the game program and through the Dolphins’ social media platforms. The Dolphins also will recognize a team of the week who will be on field during the national anthem.

The program concludes at the Dolphins-Jaguars game where the Dolphins will honor yearly award winners in all categories with the exception of the team of the year.

Week 3 Winners:

  • High School Coach of the Week: Nate Hudson from South Dade High School. The Bucs are 5-0 this season and came up with a huge win, defeating last year’s defending 6A state champion Miami Northwestern 20-18 in their third contest.
  • High School Player of the Week: Nik Scalzo from Cardinal Gibbons High School. The University of Kentucky bound senior quarterback threw for 247 yards and three touchdowns in a 45-8 win over Stoneman Douglas last Friday.
  • Youth Player of the Week: Jamarie Hostzclaw from the Weston Warriors of Gold Coast Pop Warner. Hostzclaw had 10 carries for over 150 yards, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries for touchdowns and seven tackles for loss in a win over the Jupiter Mustangs.
