After three straight Wisconsin Division 3 state football championship game appearances, West De Pere quarterback Jay Tollefson has been named the 2011 Wisconsin Player of the Year by the Associated Press.

Tollefson, who led his school to a perfect 28-0 record as a starter, finished his career rushing for 1,358 yards and 25 touchdown while passing for 1,618 yards and 18 touchdowns.

West De Pere beat Wisconsin Lutheran 39-24 earlier this month for the Division 3 title.
