Video: Tim Tawa - Male Athlete of the Year
See the West Linn standout in action as he earns the 2016-17 honor.
With two titles, two runner-up finishes and consistent Top 10 finishes, Jesuit earns the title of Oregon's most dominant football program since MaxPreps became America's leader for high school sports in 2006.
The Crusaders won titles in 2006 and 2015 and have never finished lower than seventh in the end-of-the-season state rankings.
Coming in on the heels of Jesuit is Sheldon, which owns three state titles and one runner-up finish. The Irish have finished first in the state three times.
Here is how the points break down:
1. 20 for a state title
2. 10 for a state championship game appearance
3.
Other points are based on where a team finished in the final
MaxPreps Oregon Football Computer Rankings presented by the Army National Guard. For example, if a team finished No. 1 overall, it would receive
25 points. If it finished 25th overall, the team would get one point. No
points are awarded if the team did not finish in the Top 25.
