Visionaries

Tyler Wilson, Rudyard senior

Senior ♦ Football

The 6-foot, 165-pound running back played a starring role as Zeeland West defeated Detroit Martin Luther King 42-22 in the Division 3 championship game at Ford Field to claim the program’s fifth Finals title and first since 2015. Hendricks scored an 11-Player Finals record six touchdowns, on runs of 49, 14 and 30 yards and passes of six, 11 and eight yards. Those six TDs also gave him the Finals record of 36 points scored.

Hendricks also finished with a team-high 129 yards rushing on 16 carries and caught all three passes completed by the run-heavy T-formation Dux, who threw only four times while running the ball 47. Also a defensive back, had had two tackles and a forced fumble. Hendricks finished this season with 1,576 yards and 22 touchdowns rushing on 146 carries, and 26 touchdowns total with four more receiving. He also plays basketball and competes in track & field in both hurdles races, the 400 and 800 relays and long jump, making the MHSAA Finals in those four running events in the spring.
