Cedar Creek High hasn’t been around all that long, but the Pirates seem to keep churning out solid quarterbacks. From Jesse Milza to Louis Barrios to now Billy Smith, head coaches Tim Watson and James Melody have had the luxury of signal callers who not only were talented, but tough as well.
Smith fought through a couple of injuries his senior year to help the Pirates post an 8-4 record that included a run to the South Jersey Group 3 championship game.
Smith passed for more than 200 yards in five of Creek’s 12 games, including more than 300 yards on two occasions. He finished the year with more than 2,000 yards, and in his career he topped 4,000 yards with 32 touchdowns. He also rushed for more than 200 yards and three scores as a senior.
