Central York QB Beau Pribula named state 6-A player of year by Pennsylvania coaches
- The Pennsylvania Football News Coaches Select all-state honorees were announced over the weekend.
- Central York quarterback Beau Pribula was named the Class 6-A player of the year.
- Central York's Gerry Yonchiuk was picked the 6-A co-coach of the year.
- In all, 13 players from York or Adams counties earned all-state honors from the coaches.
Beau Pribula has impressed a lot of folks during the past year.
Starting in the spring, the scholarship offers started piling up from multiple Power Five college programs, which were obviously impressed with the junior quarterback’s passing and running skills. Penn State head coach James Franklin eventually won the battle for Pribula’s talents and bagged a verbal commitment from the Central York standout in early August.
Then, once the games finally got started in late September during a truncated, COVID-plagued high school season, Pribula impressed fans across the region and the state while leading the Panthers’ program to new heights.
Now, it’s apparent that Pennsylvania's high school coaches were also impressed. Sunday afternoon, Pribula was selected as the Pennsylvania Football News Coaches Select Class 6-A Player of the Year.
In addition, Pribula’s head coach, Gerry Yonchiuk, was picked as the PFN Coaches Select Class 6-A Co-Coach of the Year, sharing the award with Souderton’s Ed Gallagher.
In all, 13 players from York or Adams counties earned PFN Coaches Select all-state recognition, including six players from Central York.
Pribula won the 6-A state player-of-the-year honor over numerous athletes who are headed to big-time colleges, including St. Joseph’s Prep senior QB Kyle McCord, who is going to Ohio State. Pribula and McCord were each named to the PFN Coaches Select 6-A first team.
McCord led Prep to a win over Central York in the 6-A state championship game. That was the Panthers’ only loss during a 10-1 season that included York-Adams Division I and District 3 6-A titles. Central also won a pair of state playoff games. Before the 2020 season, no Y-A team had ever captured a football crown in the district’s largest class or won a state playoff game in any big-school classification.
The Panthers accomplished all of that in Yonchiuk’s first season with the Panthers. The veteran head coach had previously been named the state 6-A coach of the year by the Pennsylvania Football Writers.
Seven York-Adams players on big-school all-state teams; Central leader gets coaching award
The 6-foot, 2-inch, 205-pound Pribula was a big reason the Panthers were so successful. Pribula recorded 2,675 all-purpose yards and was responsible for 48 total touchdowns in 2020. He finished the season with 34 TD passes and seven interceptions, while completing 68% of his passes. He also ran for 519 yards and averaged 8.4 yards per carry, scoring 14 rushing TDs.
Other local all-state honorees: The other PFN Coaches Select first-team honorees from the Y-A League were Central York’s Judah Tomb (as both a wideout and a kick/punt returner in 6-A), Central York’s Josh Gaffney (6-A offensive tackle), Kennard-Dale’s Gabe Hulslander (4-A defensive end) and Northern York’s Mason Yohn (4-A kicker).
Local players earning second-team PFN Coaches Select all-state recognition were: Central York’s Kyle Fontes (6-A tight end), Central York’s Seth Griffiths (6-A defensive end), Central York’s Taylor Wright-Rawls (6-A defensive athlete), York High’s Sam Stoner (6-A quarterback), York High’s Jahiem White (6-A running back), York High’s Saumir Deshields (6-A defensive tackle), Red Lion’s Randy Fizer (5-A offensive athlete), Yohn (4-A punter) and York Catholic’s Nick Andrasi (2-A kicker).
The 6-foot, 180-pound Tomb enjoyed a breakout senior season that has seen his recruiting profile increase markedly. Tomb led the York-Adams League with 844 receiving yards and scored 12 touchdowns, while he also starred on defense and as a kick returner. He averaged 53.3 yards on kickoff returns and 32.2 yards on punt returns.
Gaffney was the senior leader of the Panthers' offensive line that allowed Pribula the time to find playmakers such as Tomb. The 6-foot, 4-inch, 310-pound lineman recently signed with Football Championship Subdivision Albany.
The 6-3, 240-pound Hulslander led K-D with 27 tackles (19 solo, eight assists, five sacks) over six games during his senior season.
Yohn, a 5-11 sophomore, was 20 for 21 on extra points and 7 for 11 on field goals, with a long field goal of 47 yards. He also averaged 47.6 yards on his kickoffs, with three touchbacks. As a punter, he averaged 36.4 yards per punt, with 14 of his 34 punts inside the 20-yard line.
Fontes finished 2020 with 24 receptions for 309 yards, averaging 12.9 yards per catch, with five touchdowns. The 6-4, 215-pound senior is committed to play for FCS Bucknell.
Griffiths was an undersized defensive lineman at 5-9, 180 pounds, but the senior made a big impact on the field. The Y-A Division I Defensive Player of the Year had four sacks, 12 tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, one recovered fumble and a blocked punt.

The 6-2, 165-pound Wright-Rawls finished with 24 tackles (18 solo and six assists) to go with four interceptions and a forced fumble. The senior is headed to FCS Bryant.
White enjoyed a breakout sophomore season and led the Bearcats' offense to the District 3 final. The 5-9, 187-pound sophomore carried the ball 138 times for 1,332 rushing yards to lead the Y-A League. He also led the league in total scoring with 16 touchdowns and four 2-point conversions.
Stoner finished his first season as York High’s starting QB with 16 TDs and just two interceptions. The sophomore was 66 for 127 (52%) for 1,182 yards.
DeShields, a 6-1, 240-pound senior, anchored a Bearcats defense that was sixth in the Y-A League in rushing yards allowed (127.7) and second in the league in turnover differential.
Fizer, a 6-1, 169-pound senior, switched over to quarterback after he broke records as a wide receiver during his previous two varsity seasons. In 2020, he recorded 1,935 all-purpose yards and was responsible for 23 total touchdowns. Fizer signed with FCS Wagner College last week.
The 6-foot, 200-pound Andrasi was a special-teams weapon for the Irish. The junior was 28 for 29 on extra point attempts and 5 for 7 on field goal attempts, with a long field goal of 44 yards. He scored a total of 43 points.
