Gatorade announced Thursday morning that it selected Saguaro's Christian Kirk as its 2014 Arizona High Scool Footbal Player of the Year.

Kirk is the fourth Saguaro product to receive the honor. The five-star senior is considered one of the better athletes Arizona has ever produced.

He'll graduate as the state's career record holder in touchdowns (102), receptions (203), receiving yards (3,943), and receiving touchdowns (52). Former Saguaro players Luke Rubenzer (2013-14), quarterback Tim Ruben (2007-08) and defensive end Kyle Caldwell (2002-03) also received the award.

"Blessed to say I've been named Arizona Gatorade Player of the Year," Kirk wrote on his Twitter account
