;rhis past winter, Scott Schaffner received one of the highest honors a high school athlete could receive: he was named a High School All-American Football Player.

But that was not all for Scott. He went one further. Not only was he named to an All-American team, but he was also chosen as the number one High School :Male Athlete of the Year by the Touchdown Club of Washington, D.C. Scott recefved the prestigious Dial Award for this honor.

We have reprinted the Touchdown Club program that honored Scott and other award winners at their 52nd Annual Dinner this past winte:r.

THE DIAL AWARD Male High School Athlete of the Year

national award who plays center.

Scott's combined statistics for his junior and senior years are impressive and have caused a stir among college recruiters-226 completions out of 390 attempts (only eight interceptions) for a 58 percent success rate, a total of 3,249 yards and 27 touchdowns. Scott is quick. running the 40-yard dash in 4.5 seconds.

Scott also is a talented baseball player who sometimes plays second base and has earned AllCity selection as a designated hitter. "Baseball lets my body rest after football." Scott says, acknowledging that life as a 6-foot-3, 185-pound quarterback sometimes can be rough. He played basketbail in junior high but concentrated on footbail during high school. He still plays intrar,lural 3-on-3 basketball with friends.

He is as dedicated to studying as he is ~o sports.

Scott is in Moeller's advanced placement program for honor students and has a perfect 4.0 grade point average, even with a class load that includes political theory, calculus and advanced physics.

Purpose of the Dial Award

Scott Schaffner Scott Schaffner is one young man you would want your daughter tb date. He is one of those allAmerican boys with manners, poise, looks. a nice family, varied interests and specific goals for his promising future. He lives by a strict set of selfimposed guidelines which he finds easy to live by, because he doesn't want to disappoint anybody, least of all himself.

Scott credits his high standards to the strong relationships he has with his parents. teachers and coaches. "People around you can make you do things you never thought possible," Scott says.

"They can motivate you in so many ways. My parents are both hard-working and they never leave things unfinished. I learned from that and realized I could do the same thing."

As a football quarterback, Scott needed that kind of confidence to succeed-especially at Cincinnati's Moeller High School. a tradition-rich school with a reputation for turning out great quarterbacks.

Scott first started as quarterback in the fifth game of his junior season on a team dominated by seniors. Undaunted, he took charge of the team and led them through the playoffs and to the state championship.

"There was a lot of pressure in the playoffs because I thought: If I throw this pass and it is intercepted, that could end the season for these sentors. I couldn't let them down," he says.

Although the team didn't retain the championship in 1986, Scott performed well, even breaking a school record in one game with 299 yards passing, completing 16-for-23 with three touchdowns and no interceptions. Perhaps his success was due in part to the on-field support of his fraternal twin, Todd,

The Dial Award was estaotished in 1979 to recognize outstanding achievement in athletic competition by high school scholars.
