Yarmouth football player earns feature spot in Sports Illustrated Faces in the Crowd

Yarmouth High senior Anders Overhaug is the latest Mainer to be featured in Sports Illustrated’s Faces in the Crowd.

Overhaug is listed in this week’s issue for his performance in the Class C state championship game, when he scored six touchdowns in a 41-14 victory against Bucksport.

The clip reads: “Anders, a senior running back at Yarmouth High, scored all six of his team’s touchdowns — four on runs, one on a pass and one on a 92-yard kickoff return — in a 41–14 win over Bucksport, which hadn’t allowed more than two touchdowns in a game all season, for the Clippers’ second straight Class C state title. It was their 24th consecutive win and capped back-to-back undefeated seasons. Anders rushed for 1,726 yards and 30 touchdowns this season and made 100 tackles as a strong safety.”
