So thrilled that our son has the opportunity to learn more about the game of football from this man!

Here's the story I wrote on Quad Cities Salute to Sports Male Athlete of the Year Nolan DeLong. The Durant product is keeping his plate full this summer, participating in Hawkeye football workouts and playing baseball for the Wildcats:

This year's Quad Cities Salute to Sports athlete of the year recipients:

Female: Annie Wirth, Geneseo
Male: Nolan DeLong, Durant

[QC Varsity @QCVarsity]

Annie Wirth is the second girl from Geneseo to win Quad Cities Salute to Sports female athlete of the year. Kendra Bos did so in 1996.

Nolan DeLong is the second boy from Durant to capture the male athlete of the year award. Scott Jehle was the 1982 recipient.

[Zach Martin @zach_martin95]

Our fifth male athlete of the year finalist is Durant's Nolan DeLong (@NolanDelong)

A six-sport athlete in a calendar year, the Iowa recruit finished his career with over 6,000 rushing yards and 68 scores. He was good in the other sports, too. Like really good

Senior @NolanDelong cracked Durant baseballs Top 10 all time in stolen bases last night with SB #50/51. His next SB will tie him with ‘06 grad Ross Petersen who also went on to play football at Iowa

I’ve had a front seat view of this remarkable high school career!! Truly blessed and understand this may be a once in a lifetime experience for me. Work to be done…Blue Oval bound. @NolanDelong

[Matt Coss @mattcoss78]

If Durant's Nolan DeLong plays baseball this summer, he'll end up being a six-sport varsity athlete this school year. Never seen that in all my years of doing this.

Fall: Football
Winter: Basketball, wrestling
Spring: Track & field, golf
Summer: Baseball

Quite incredible.

[Ross DeLong @RossDelong]

@graves_zeke @NolanDelong @Anthony_Isley05 I second that!!

"There are somebody jobs, & there are everybody jobs. Everybody has to play with effort and energy. Young players get hung up on whether they are scoring points or not. The way you get on the court is with effort & energy."

[Matt Coss @mattcoss78]

Nolan DeLong's path to the state tournament is very unique.

Besides juggling two sports (his first year of wrestling), the future Iowa football player is competing at heavyweight despite weighing 197 pounds.

Impressive. Future Hawkeye LB @NolanDelong leads Durant's basketball team with 20.0 ppg this season & now has also qualified for the state tournament in wrestling. That's all after a football season that saw him rack up 2,111 yards rushing & 21 TDs along with 66 tackles & 14 TFL.

[Ryan Timmerman @ryantimmerman3]

State qualifiers from 1A-12 (after wrestleback):

285
1st: Alexander Kaufmann, Wilton (40-6)
2nd: Nolan DeLong (Durant, 6-3)

DeLong beat Quintyn Rocha 4-2 in SV-1 to clinch a spot at state. #iahswr

[Kory Kuffler @kuff_sports]

WATCH - Durant Senior Nolan DeLong is tackling Wrestling and Basketball at the same time. See how he is able to do it. @NolanDelong @RossDelong #delongdays #qcscore
