SANTA ROSA BEACH — Connor Rooney’s junior season mirrored South Walton’s resurgence; steady, physical and increasingly hard to ignore.

The Seahawks linebacker emerged as the anchor of South Walton’s defense in 2025, piling up more than 100 tackles, making game-changing plays on special teams and helping lead the program to a 7-3 record and a second-round playoff appearance.

Along the way, Rooney’s effort in 2025 caught the attention of Mid Bay News readers, as he earned more than 47% of the vote to be named Defensive Player of the Year, capping a season that marked a major leap from his earlier role as a rotational player.

Rooney’s production was consistent week to week, but several moments stood out. He contributed heavily on special teams, blocking punts and field goals, and delivered standout performances against rivals, including Freeport, which South Walton defeated twice in the same season.
