SOUTHAVEN, Miss. — Quinn Cascio, an offensive lineman from Northpoint Christian School in Southaven, has been selected to play in the 23rd annual AutoZone Liberty Bowl High School All-Star Game, one of the region’s premier postseason showcases for senior talent.
Cascio is among 86 top high school football seniors from the Memphis metropolitan area chosen for the Dec. 13 contest. The annual game features top players from Shelby County, municipal, and private schools in a matchup highlighting character, academic performance, and athletic achievement.
A three-year starter at left guard for the Northpoint Christian Trojans, Cascio was a key component of an offensive line that helped lead the team to a 7-4 record and a first-round appearance in the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association Division II-AA playoffs.
The 86 selected players represent 55 area high schools. Rosters for the contest include three 2025 Tennessee Mr. Football Award finalists: Kelvin Perkins (Southwind High School), Andrew Johnson (Fairley High School), and Nix Fullen (Tipton-Rosemark Academy).
“With two outstanding head coaches leading the teams and the abundance of talent that will be featured in the game, we will continue the tradition of excellence the All-Star Game has established over the past two decades,” said Steve Ehrhart, executive director of the AutoZone Liberty Bowl.
Fred Copeland, head coach at Fairley High School, will lead the Blue Team, and MASE head coach Cedric Miller will coach the Red Team.
The All-Star Game will be played Saturday, Dec. 13, at Memphis University School. Kickoff is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Tickets are $10, with children 10 and under admitted for $5. Tickets can be purchased through the AutoZone Liberty Bowl ticket office by calling 901-795-7700.
