Two Builders earn All-State Division II-III honors by Va. Sports Info. Directors

Apprentice School senior wide receiver Travis Reid and senior defensive back Quentin Forbes were named on Wednesday to the All-State Division II-III football teams by the Virginia Sports Information Directors Association.  Reid was a first-team selection, while Forbes earned second-team honors.

From Goose Creek, S.C. and an electrician apprentice, Reid finished his career by rewriting the record books for Builder receivers. He holds school records for single game receptions (12 vs. Chowan), single season receptions (71), single season touchdowns (13) and became the first ever 1,000-yard receiver finishing with 1,049 yards.  Reid also holds the career records for receptions (169), yards (2,895) and touchdowns (33).

In the Atlantic Central Football Conference, he topped the league in receptions per game (7.1), yards per game (104.9 which broke the ACFC record), all-purpose yards (129.6) and was tied for the lead in scoring (7.8 points per game).

Forbes, from Chesapeake, Va. and a rigger apprentice, was the second leading tackler on the team with 64.  He returned an interception for a touchdown against Chowan University in the season finale and was second on the team in pass deflections (6), pass breakups (4) and tackles for a loss (9.5).
