TUPELO — Drew Dean accounted for all five Tupelo touchdowns before halftime in the Golden Wave’s 38–0 win over DeSoto Central on November 5. That performance earns the quarterback NMSN Player of the Week honors, presented by Impact Health Clinics, for November 2–8.
Dean completed 12 of 16 passes for 218 yards and four touchdowns. Wearing No. 2, he added a rushing touchdown as Tupelo finished the regular season 11–0.
