Kirkwood High School wide receiver Mike McHugh's standout performance against Hazelwood Central last week has earned the senior the title of St. Louis Rams High School Player of the Week, and it's little wonder why. 

McHugh completed four catches for 214 yards receiving, and scored four touchdowns including a 98-yard interception return against Hazelwood Central.

McHugh, who made an early commitment to Northwestern, scored twice in the second quarter to give the Pioneers a 40-0 advantage at halftime. He returned an interception 98 yards for a touchdown and then turned a short pass into a 93-yard touchdown reception.

Kirkwood (3-0), is ranked fourth in the STLhighschoolsports.com large-schools rankings.

Thank you to Lisa Wade of the Kirkwood School District for sharing this Pioneer accomplishment with Kirkwood Patch.
