Eligibility requirements are nebulous, but generally center around game
day impact, media visibility, important plays produced, eye-catching stats,
and the amount of “buzz about town” generated, since that's
what “fame” basically is. No active players are on the list:

Some player
bios in our Hall of Fame are accompanied with pictures. It is certainly
desirable to have pictures of each and every former Timberwolf listed
on this page. Also, for some players there was more information readily
accessible about them than there was for others. If you have a photo we
can use, or if you spot bios that need correcting, updating, or expanding,
please let me know!
Patrick
Anthony
Receiver / Defensive End
2001-2002
Holds many career receiving records- yardage, touchdowns, and
catches. Good hands, with a tough running style after the catch. His distinctive
seal bark made him easy for fans to find on the sidelines. Shares school
record for most number of catches in one game (8, 2002 vs. Pflugerville)
as well as pieces of numerous other receiving records. Patrick
was listed on the 2005 Baylor football roster.

Roy Bracey
Quarterback
2001-2002
The backup to fellow Hall-of-Fame member Stephen Schaffer during
his junior year, Roy Bracey only got to QB the Timberwolves for one season.
But in that single campaign, he captured nearly all of the school single-season
and career passing records, many of which still stand today, even though
he missed nearly two full games due to injury. Lacking the nearly unstoppable
running threat available to the offense in the previous three seasons,
Bracey’s team was the first in CP history to convert to a “west
coast” style passing offense, and on the strength of Roy’s
right arm, the T’wolves aired it out on a regular basis. Roy played
for two seasons for the noted program at Appalachian State.

Jared Bunn
Tight End / Linebacker
1999-2001
Set the original school record for career interceptions, which was broken
in 2005. Jared is near the top in career touchdown receptions, as well.
A multi-talented athlete, he was All-District in football and basketball,
and All-State in baseball. He became Cedar Park's first division one collegiate
baseball player (at Kansas State). Jared
now plays for Texas State. Jared returned home to speak to Cedar Park
athletes at the 2005 Spring Athletics Awards Banquet.

Daniel
Dilworth Defensive Back / Kick Returner / Quarterback
/ Kick Holder
2003-2005
A phenomenally effective all-around athlete, Dilworth played
many roles: Defensive back, holder, quarterback. He set school record
for most total return yards in a season. Threw only one incomplete
pass in his whole quarterbacking career (8-for-9). Threw second longest
TD pass in school history. Had longest punt return in school history.
Tiedthe school record for most interceptions in one season in 2004,
and set the school record for most interceptions in a career. Also
played varsty basketball his junior year. Started and played just
one full game at quarterback - the last game of his career - and as
such led the 10-0 upset of 11th-ranked Leander to close the 2005 season.

Rupert
Edwards Running Back
2002-2004
Second leading all-time rusher in Cedar Park history. Only
player besides Quinton Smith to rush for over a thousand yards in
more than one season, (1,146 in 2003, 1,751 in 2004). Rupert also
averaged over 25 yards per kickoff return in his career. He amassed
19 100+ yard rushing games, second all-time in school history. His
mark of ten 100+ yard rushing games in one season (2004) is a school
record. His highest rushing total came against Stony Point in 2003
at 245 yards. He also rushed for 239 yards and three touchdowns against
a team ranked #1 in central Texas at the time (Pflugerville). Rupert
also owns the third, sixth, and ninth-highest single-season rushing
marks in CP history, and was the team’s leading rusher two of
his three seasons on the varsity, and leading scorer his junior and
senior years. Rupert holds the school record for most rushing attempts
over a career, over a season, and in one game. Rupert went on to play
collegiate ball at Navarro. |

Travis Farst
Offensive Linesman
1999-2001
Sometimes referred to as “The U.S.S. Farst” or "The Empire
Farst Building", Travis was the largest young man to play for Cedar
Park in its first five years. At 6’7” 300,+ he was awfully
hard to get past. Travis’ abilities and potential were so remarkable,
that although an injury plagued him for nearly all of his senior season,
Baylor University wanted him as part of That Good Old Baylor Line. Imagine
the extra yardage for Quinton Smith had Travis been helping to lead the
way through that memorable 2001 championship season. He was regularly
named to the Hill Country News’ “Dazzling Dozen” for
football. Travis was an exceptional field athlete on the track team, throwing
the discus and putting the shot. He was the district champion in both
events in 2001. He still holds the school shot put and discus records.
He
plays regularly, often starting, for the Bears offensive line. Travis
also returned home to speak to Cedar Park athletes at the 2005 Spring
Athletics Awards Banquet.

Tyler
Farst
Running Back / Tight End
2003-2004
A key player in the offensive success of the 2004 Region II Finalists,
Tyler Farst paved the road that standout yardage-gobblers Rupert Edwards
and Korey Washington drove on the way to record rushing production on
the best Timberwolf team ever. Lining up sometimes as a fullback, sometimes
as a tight end or even wide-out, the presence of Tyler’s size and
speed in the Cedar Park offensive attack made opposing coordinators dedicate
defensive attention to him, and, along with his superb lead blocking,
this led to just shy of 4,000 rushing yards for that 2004 team. He was
also the team’s leading receiver that season. Capping off a tremendous
athletic school year, Tyler also played third base for Coach Gilbert Prather’s
district championship baseball team in 2005, and made honorable mention
All-State. Perhaps Tyler’s greatest moment – certainly one
that will cement his name in Cedar Park football history – was catching
the TD pass from Korey Washington in double-overtime to notch CP’s
first-ever win over arch-rival Leander, and clinch CPHS’s second
unbeaten district football championship. Tyler went on to play collegiate
baseball at Grayson College. With his inclusion here, Tyler and brother
Travis become the first team of siblings in our prestigious Hall.

Brandon
Haug Linebacker / Fullback
2003-2005
Clearly one of the top defensive players and top linebackers
ever to play for Cedar Park, Brandon was one of just three starters
to return from the original “Gang Green” defense from
2004. As such, he was the “quarterback” of the defense,
and turned in an awesome season. Not only did he lead the team in
tackles and demonstrative hits, he had two interceptions in one game
against Killeen Ellison and returned one of those for a touchdown
(pictured here). He also played fullback on occasion, and scored the
season’s first touchdown on a fantastic 67-yard burst right
up the middle against Harker Heights. Not to be overlooked is his
punting, which averaged over forty yards per kick- the highest season
punt yardage average in school history. Brandon was voted the District
15-5A Defensive MVP by league coaches. He signed to play collegiate
football with Eastern New Mexico. |

Trey Hawkins
Defensive Tackle
2003-2005
Preseason All-Centex team member in 2005, "The Hawk"
was the only returning D-line starter from the 2004 Region II Finlist
team. Trey was an intergral part of the stellar performance of the Timberwolf
defense, a block of granite in the middle. He made the 2005 All Region
II football team, the All-Centex team, and was also a championship wrestler
for Coach Phil Peterson's Cedar Park Wrestling team.
Back

William Innes
Offensive Linesman
2003-2004
Offensive linesman who led the paving of the road that produced
two thousand-yard rushers and dozens of school offensive records in 2004.
Also one of the finer wrestlers in Cedar Park history.
Back

Riley Iverson
Linebacker
2001-2002
A rabid dog of a middle linebacker in the greatest Nitschke and Butkus
traditions, Riley Iverson was the team leader in the category of willful
bodily assault, delivering blow after heavy blow on opponents who wandered
into his range. Riley had a key interception return for a touchdown in
the only CP playoff game ever, against Waller in 2001. That play came
at the end of a fierce comeback that gave the team the lead late in the
game. A ferocious tackler, Iverson caused, recovered, and returned a fumble
against Westwood in 2002 to give the T’wolves the lead over a team
that would eventually share the district title. That touchdown return
was the longest such play in school history at the time.
Back

Albert Johnson
Linebacker
2002-2004
Originally a reliable fullback with sure hands, in the last two
years of Albert’s career, he transformed himself into a tremendous
linebacker, quick to the ball, delivering a ton of bricks on contact.
Albert holds nearly all the school records for tackles and assists, and
has nearly uncountable key stops on critical plays. He is only the second
member of the Timberwolf Hall of Fame to enter primarily based on accomplishments
on defense. Though undersized for a middle linebacker, Albert flew to
the ball like nobody’s business, and routinely stopped backs much
larger than him dead in their tracks. Albert was voted to the All-State
team his senior year, and was the leader of a Timberwolf defense that
shut out three straight opponents, held the opposition out of the end
zone for 19 straight quarters, and ended the season as the second-ranked
5A defense in all of Texas. Albert
went on to play collegiate football at Ranger College.
Back

Tim Knicky
Defensive End / Tight End
2004-2005
A huge problem for opposing offenses to solve, Tim Knicky was
perhaps the district's most dominant defensive end. BY the time he left
Cedar Park, Tim had re-written the school sack record. Also an effective
tight end, he had two critical 40-yard catches in 2005. Tim sacked Leander
QB Drew Dunn a record five times in 2005's 10-0 shutout win. He recovered
a fumble in the end zone for a touchdown against Pflugerville. Tim signed
to play collegiate football with Stpehen F. Austin State University.
Back

Zac Landry
Defensive Back / Kick Returner
2003-2004
This speedy defensive back and return specialist set three school
return records in the first three games of 2004: longest fumble return
for a score (68 yards against Harker Heights), longest kickoff return
(100 yards for a touchdown against Hays), and longest fumble return (71
yards against Killeen Ellison). He was a key member of the greatest defensive
secondary ever put together at Cedar Park, holding opponents to school-record
lows in pass offense production. Zac was also the holder for place-kicking
attempts, and as such helped to establish a record of 38 consecutive PAT
kicks in one season. With his Timberwolf teammate Allbert Johnson, Zac
went on to play collegiate football at Ranger College.
Back
to Top of Page
Will MacDowell
Cornerback / Kick Returner
1999-2001
A speedy defensive back and kick return specialist, Will MacDowell could
change a game at any given instant. On a squad that included Quinton Smith,
it was actually MacDowell who was the fastest man on the team. Will holds
the school record for career interceptions. Oddly, what was perhaps his
greatest play never counted. In the very first full varsity game CP ever
played, in Bastrop in 2000, MacDowell picked off a pass deep in the end
zone, wound his way out and over to the far sideline, and blasted the
length of the field for a 108-yard touchdown return... only to have it
called back by a holding penalty that occurred fifty yards away from him
and long after he’d passed. He holds the school record for the fastest
score in any game, returning the opening kickoff of the 2001 Killeen Shoemaker
game 90 yards for a score, with 14 seconds elapsed from the clock. Will’s
name cropped up routinely when a critical third-down pass was batted away,
or when a bone-crushing hit forced a fumble to stop an opponent’s
drive. A district champion sprinter, Will received many collegiate track
offers.

DeMarreo
Matthew
Fullback / Linebacker
1999-2001
Rushing for nearly a thousand yards in his career, this solid fullback
was primarily a lead blocker for The Q, and as such, an important component
of his team’s success. Although knocking over many a potential tackler
for his long-time backfield running mate, “Dee-mo” nevertheless
logged many key runs of his own in his three years on varsity, including
a 90-yard touchdown kickoff return and three TD runs from scrimmage greater
than fifty yards in length. DeMarreo was also a consistent receiver out
of the backfield, and played tough at linebacker when required, as well.
He went on to play collegiate football for the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor.
DeMarreo passed away in May of 2004. An annual scholarhsip is funded by
the Cedar Prk Athletic Booster Club in his name.

Trevor Myogeto
Defensive Back / Wide Receiver
2002-2004
A two-way starter at wideout and defensive back, Trevor Myogeto
led the team in receptions in 2003, and led the district in the number
of times announcers mispronounced his name (it’s MYU-guh-toe). Trevor
challenged Patrick Anthony’s career receptions record right up until
the last game, finishing just below him with __ career catches. Trevor
would likely have passed Anthony as the career leading receiver had not
an injury forced him to wear a cast most of his senior season. He’s
also in the record books tied with John McMillan (class of ’01)
and Brandon Haug (’06) with two interceptions in one game, and again
for a school-record nine consecutive games with at least one reception,
spanning the 2003 and 2004 seasons. His name is prominent in the school
tackle records lists, as well.

Chris Price
Kicker
2001-2002
No Cedar Park kicker has ever been a more accurate or long-ranged
field goal kicker. Chris kicked a Timberwolf record 51-yarder against
Georgetown on a cold night in 2002, against an 8-to-10-mph wind! At the
time of his gradation, he’d set nearly all the school records for
placekicking, having hit 75% of his field goal attempts in 2001 and 2002,
and 95.65% of his PAT attempts. His deep kickoffs were a critical component
in forcing the opposition to start drives deep in their own territory.
A key member of strong Timberwolf soccer teams, Chris
earned a scholarship to play collegiate soccer in North Carolina at Campbell
University.
Back

Stephen
Shaffer
Quarterback
1999-2001
All-District first team for the only outright district football champions
in the history of Leander Independent School District, Stephen was the
on-field general, quarterbacking the Timberwolves with steady leadership
and precise performance, playing a large part in the only two outstanding
seasons (1999, 9-1; 2001; 8-3) in the program’s first five years.
That ought to be enough, but a few of Stephen’s stats bear mentioning,
as well. In his senior year (2001) he threw 12 touchdown passes (a school
single-season record) and only one interception (also a school record),
and he was the highest-rated QB in the central Texas area of any classification,
1A to 5A. He also owns school records for most touchdown passes and passing
yards. Stephen received several collegiate football offers, but the All-district
shortstop decided to nurture his first love of baseball instead, initially
with nationally-noted program at Navarro Junior College, and later with
Texas State.
Back

Quinton Smith
Tailback / Kick Returner
1999-2001
As the Gold Standard for our Hall of Fame, “The Q” is the
greatest player ever to strap on the pads at Cedar Park. Quinton was the
district 17-4A Most Valuable Player in 2001, and was voted to several
All-State teams. Q finished his career with school records of 57 touchdowns
and 4,445 rushing yards. To put that rushing total in perspective, you
could say that Q rushed for 2.53 miles. He also holds the career total
offense record at 4,975 yards. He owns the second, fourth, and fifth highest
season rushing totals in school history (1999- 1,760; 2001- 1,523; 2000-
1,162). Three times he scored five touchdowns in one game, and once did
so in one half. He averaged over 11 yards per carry until the last few
games of his senior year pulled that average down to near ten. In one
game, Q produced over 200 yards rushing, five touchdowns, averaged over
20 yards per carry, was knocked out of bounds four times, and thus was
only tackled once. Perhaps most remarkable is the fact that Q amassed
his career totals in what amounted to only about 20 games’ worth
of playing time. The only season he played full games was his junior year
(2000) and an injury suffered against Belton kept him completely out of
the final four games of that season. In his sophomore and senior seasons,
He was wisely withheld from most of the second half in nearly every game,
as most CP wins (and losses, for that matter) were by large margins, and
there was thus no reason to risk injury to such a potent player in games
whose outcomes were already certain. Although never given the publicity
due him by the Austin media, Quinton Smith was without doubt the finest
running back in Central Texas during his time. Two other backs of the
era matched or surpassed his yardage productivity, but Q left those young
men far behind when factoring in his touchdown total, his 15 scoring runs
of fifty yards or greater, his less-than-full-time status, the rankings
of the defenses he faced, and the rankings, records, and playoff achievements
of the teams he routinely vivisected. At his computed rate of 222 yards
per full game of playing time, if he’d put in a full 31 games –
all that was possible in his three years – Q would have rushed for
6,882 yards and scored 88 touchdowns. There was clearly no equal to “The
Q”. Quinton
is now one of the main cogs of Rice University’s offensive attack.
He gained 76 yards against national champion Texas on just ten carries
in Austin in September, 2005. Only Reggie Bush, by four yards, outrushed
The Q against the Longhorns, but Q's average per carry against the Champs
was better..

Wes Stewart
Offensive / Defensive Linesman
2000-2002
“The Big Show” was an important contributor on both
the offensive and defensive lines. A talented baseball player as well,
Wes earned an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West
Point, and plays
collegiate football for Army. At Cedar Park, Wes was a two-time all-district
selection. He starred at both tight end and defensive tackle. A three-year
letterman and three-year starter, Wes served as team captain as a senior.
He was an outstanding baseball talent as well, as a four-year letterman,
and a three-time all-district first baseman. In 2001, Wes played on the
Cedar Park Final Four team in the state tournamnet as a junior, and was
a two-time team captain. Off the field, Wes served as president of school's
Fellowship of Christian Athletes group and was an active member of the
Peer Assisted Leadership Skills (PALS) program.

Wes
Wagener Kicker
2004-2005
The greatest kicker in Cedar Park history. At the time of
his graduation, Wagener held 14 of the 17 place-kicking records tracked,
including best PAT percentage, most PATs in a career, and most FGs
in a career. His 63 consecutive successful PATs may be a state record.
His field goals provided the ultimate margin in several important
games, most notably the State Quarterfinal win over Mesquite in Texas
Stadium. An excellent soccer player, as well. In the picture at right,
Wagener - out of he hold of another Timberwolf Hall of Fame member,
Daniel Dilworth- prepares to nail a one of his string of PATs against
Killeen Ellison.. |

Korey
Washington Quarterback / Wide Receiver
2002-2004
Multi-threat quarterback whose father Mike won two national
championships for coach Jim Wacker at Texas Lutheran. Korey’s
running was as big a danger to opposing defenses as his throwing.
He has several long TD runs to his credit, including a critical 72-yarder
against Hays in 2003 that helped the Timberwolves to a stunning road
upset of the team that would snap Westlake’s national record
district winning streak just a few weeks later. His first season on
varsity (2002) he was a wideout, and as such holds the school record
for the longest reception, a 70-yard touchdown from Roy Bracey against
Hays in 2002. He is the third leading all-time rusher in CP history,
with a career total of 2,581 yards. His mark of 1,896 yards in 2004
is the most of any Timberwolf in a single season. On back to back
playoff nights, Korey set the single-game rushing record – and
perhaps the standard for clutch performances under pressure –
with 283 against Hays, and the very next game barely missed setting
it again, “settling” for the second most rushing yards,
with 279 against Copperas Cove, both marks coming in the playoffs. |

A
view of Korey Washington his opponents were forced to get used to.
|
Korey is also the second-leading passer in school history, with 1,923
career yards, and also holds the mark for second most passing yards in
a single season (1,037). His total offensive production of 4,693 yards
is just a hair behind the school record set by Quinton Smith, and whereas
Smith set the record with running and receiving yardage only, Washington
contributed offensive yardage in all three disciplines- rushing, passing,
and receiving. In fact, Korey is the only Timberwolf player in history
to score touchdowns running, throwing, and catching over the course of
his career. Korey was the field general leading the team through its best
season ever, 2004’s four-round march deep into the state playoffs.
Korey
is now a starting cornerback for the Mean Green of North Texas, and
played his very first varisty game in Austin in September 2006 against
the Texas Longhorns.

Kyle
Williams Defensive Back
2003-2004
One of the fastest players on the team, and also one of the
heaviest hitters, these traits allowed Kyle Williams to play safety,
linebacker, and even return the occasional kick. Williams produced
two monumental touchowns in 2004. The first came in the regular season
finale against Leander, when he picked a Lion fumble out of the air
with just a few minutes left in the game and raced 35 yards untouched
for the tying score. CP would go on to win in OT. At right, against
Mesquite in the state quarterfinals at Texas Stadium, Williams is
just moments away from an interception that he will take up the right
sideline, diving into the end zone for a lightning quick Cedar Park
touchdown on the game's second play. |

Back

Unbeknownst to me as I was putting this Hall together, an odd juxtaposition
occurred. Purely without my conciously attempting this, it turns out that
each and every player on this prestigious list has played on one of Cedar
Park's two district championship teams, either in 2001 or 2004. No player
played on both. While such championship "membership" certainly
won't be a requirement for inclusion on this list, let's see how well
we can keep up this instant tradition, guys!
