Sometimes good players on losing teams don't get the credit they deserve. Peabody's Kevin Bettencourt is trying to change that.
Bettencourt, a junior linebacker for the Tanners, has more than 80 tackles over the past four games.
It's gotten to the point that Peabody coach Dick Woodbury can't keep up when watching the game films.
"Every defensive play there is, he's there," Woodbury said. "It's unbelievable that somebody can be involved in that many plays. He does a great job with his reads and following the linebackers and getting to the ball."
Bettencourt is also a standout off the field. He carries a 3.1 GPA and is a member of Peabody High's concert band.
