2018 All State Football Teams

LSWA CLASS 1A ALL-STATE FOOTBALL

By LaMar Gafford

Written for the LSWA

Whether it was a championship run or a season for the ages, it was a banner year for Lafayette Christian, Kentwood and St. Frederick.

Senior quarterback Zachary Clement from Division IV champion LCA and senior defensive back/wide receiver Trey Palmer from Class 1A champion Kentwood swept the Outstanding Player honors on the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Class 1A All-State football team. St. Frederick coach Andy Robinson earned Coach of the Year honors in his first season after taking over a 4-7 team the year prior.

Clement led the Knights’ unstoppable attack by completing 92 of 142 passes for 2,055 yards and 36 touchdowns, while adding 636 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground.

The senior signal caller saved the best for his final game by accounting for five touchdowns in the Division IV championship game to earn MVP honors and to give LCA back-to-back titles.

Like Clement, Palmer got it done in all facets this season – recording 86 tackles, four sacks and two interceptions on defense and tallying 1,582 all-purpose yards and 15 touchdowns on offense and special teams.

The LSU signee showcased his versatility in the Class 1A title game against Oak Grove as he caught three passes for 40 yards, made eight tackles and went 2-for-2 passing for 47 yards and a touchdown to help the Kangaroos win their first title since 2015.

Although St. Frederick’s season did not end with an LHSAA title, it was milestone year for Robinson and the school. The former Ouachita and Ruston assistant coached it to a five-win improvement in his first season.

The Warriors’ 9-3 season was highlighted by its first eight-win season in 22 years and its first victory over crosstown rival Ouachita Christian since 2002 en route to finishing as the runner-up to Oak Grove in District 2-1A.

2018 LSWA CLASS 3A ALL-STATE FOOTBALL

By Adam Hunsucker

Written for the LSWA

Eunice waited over three decades to hoist another state championship trophy. University High Lab captured the ultimate prize in Division II Louisiana prep football while playing with a target on its back all season.

Both champions from Class 3A placed a combined nine representatives on the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s 2018 All-State team. Class 3A runner-up Sterlington and Iota, which began the playoffs as the no. 1 seed in the nonselect bracket, each had three players on the team.

Running back Michael Hollins (157 carries, 1,648 yards, 33 touchdowns) was voted the Outstanding Offensive Player. Joining Hollins on the first team were U-High teammates John Gordon McKernan (123-of-185, 1,929 yards, 27 touchdowns) at quarterback, offensive lineman Mark Coppola, defensive lineman Jaquelin Roy (42.5 tackles, 3.5 sacks, two interceptions), Jacob Burke (111 tackles, six sacks, three interceptions) at linebacker, Jordan Clark (44 tackles, four interceptions) in the defensive backfield and kick returner Christian Harris (503 return yards, three touchdowns).

The Cubs captured back-to-back Division II championships, going undefeated for the second consecutive season – 26 straight wins -- against a schedule that featured Class 5A state champion Zachary and Division I runner-up Catholic-Baton Rouge. 

Avrey Lee, a two-way standout for Eunice, was voted Outstanding Defensive Player after making 101 tackles at linebacker. Defensive back Carlin Vigers (109 tackles, seven pass breakups, four interceptions) also made the team for the Class 3A state champions.

Eunice’s Paul Trosclair led the Bobcats to their first state title since 1982 and claimed Coach of the Year honors.

LSWA CLASS 4A FOOTBALL ALL-STATE FOOTBALL TEAM

One of the toughest offenses to stop during the 2018 high school football season was clearly St. Thomas More, while one of the toughest defenses to score against was Warren Easton.

No wonder the two top players in Class 4A come from those two schools.

Cougars junior quarterback Caleb Holstein was named the Outstanding Offensive Player, and Eagles senior defensive back Jahmal Sam was named Outstanding Defensive Player by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association.

Holstein passed for a whopping 3,847 yards and 47 touchdowns in leading St. Thomas More to the Division II state title game.

Sam did a little bit of everything in leading Warren Easton to the Class 4A state championship, but he was most dominant on defense with 55 tackles, three sacks, four tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, eight pass breakups. He also had six interceptions with three returned for touchdowns.

On offense, he gained 585 rushing yards on 52 carries with 10 touchdowns. He also had a receiving touchdown, another score on a kickoff return, and he was the Eagles kicker and punter.

Leesville coach Robbie Causey was named 4A Coach of the Year in leading the Wampus Cats to their first undefeated regular season in the 98-year history of the school and their first appearance in the state semifinals. Leesville now has three consecutive district titles, as well.

Schools with multiple players on the team include Easton (Ashaad Clayton, Josh Williams and Sam), 4A state champion Karr (Kenny Bannister, Leonard Kelly and Devin Bush), St. Martinville (Michael Pete, Travien Benjamin and Markell Chambers), Lakeshore (Jacob Bernard and Christian Westcott), Neville (Logan Newell and La’Kamion Franklin), and ED White (Peyton Amedee and Brandon Legendre).

LSWA CLASS 5A FOOTBALL ALL-STATE

Written for the LSWA

In their own way, Keilon Brown of Zachary High and Evangel Christian’s Elijan Chatman continued traditions at their respective schools.

Brown was voted the Outstanding Offensive Player and Chatman was selected as the Outstanding Defensive Player on the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Class 5A All-State football team selected by a panel of sportswriters from across the state.

After leading Zachary to its second straight 5A title and third LHSAA 5A crown in four years, Brown becomes the second Bronco to claim Outstanding Offensive Player honors, following 2015 winner Lindsey Scott Jr., now of the University of Missouri. Scott won the award in 2015 when Zachary won its first title.

Chatman follows in the tradition of a long line of Evangel defensive players to claim LSWA all-state honors, including LSU players Davin Cotton and Micah Baskerville, as well as ECA coach Byron Dawson.

East Ascension coach Darnell Lee, who led his team to its first quarterfinal appearance since 2004, was voted the 5A Coach of the Year.

Evangel’s Chatman had 58 tackles and 9 sacks during the regular season and was voted the Defensive MVP of District 1-5A. Zachary’s Brown made the LSWA team for the second straight year and finished with 4,124 yards of offense and 30 total touchdowns. The totals included 2,770 passing yards and 1,354 rushing yards.

Lee, a former East Ascension player and assistant coach, led the Spartans to an 11-2 record, including that quarterfinal berth.

Class 4A

By Jim Derry

Special to the LSWA

It clearly was no coincidence the top two teams in Class 4A made the state title game.

State champion Karr and runner-up Lakeshore highlight the 2017 All-State team with three players each, more than any other school.

Each finalist had two offensive players – Karr quarterback Skylar Perry at athlete and offensive lineman Lemar Johns along with Lakeshore quarterback Chris Penton and wide receiver Jacob Bernard. The Titans also placed the 4A Offensive Player of the Year in Penton, who passed for 3,790 yards with 43 touchdowns against just five interceptions.

Lakeshore’s Craig Jones was named Coach of the Year, as the Titans won their first 14 games on the way to the title game. The team also won its first four playoff games in school history in making it to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. To go along with his All-State quarterback, he also had two 1,000-yard receivers in Bernard and Jalen Willis.

The New Orleans area also had the 4A Defensive Player of the Year, as well, with Warren Easton defensive back Damien Tate taking those honors. Not only did the Tulane commit have 62 total tackles (25 solo) with seven pass breakups, but he logged six interceptions with a pick six.

To help push him over the top, Tate excelled on special teams and offense, with more than 1,000 all-purpose yards with 12 touchdowns.

2016 All State Football Teams

Class 5A

By Jim Derry
Special to the LSWA
Since L.B. Landry and O. Perry Walker merged four years ago, it has been quite the journey for Keytaon Thompson and Emanuel Powell. And has ended in style.
Just a few weeks after the Charging Buccaneers finished off the Class 5A state championship with a lopsided victory over West Monroe, the duo has been named the Louisiana 5A Outstanding Offensive Player and Coach of the Year, respectively.
One of those chasing Thompson around in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, the Rebels’ John Bailey Gullatt, was named the state’s Outstanding Defensive Player.
Thompson, who is heading to Mississippi State later this month to begin his collegiate journey, accounted for more than 5,000 yards of total offense and 70 touchdowns. Powell led the first Landry-Walker group to play all four seasons as one school.
“There are a lot of coaches involved in this, not just Emanuel Powell,” Powell said. “ … It has been a pleasure. (Running back) Tevin (Bush) came in the ninth grade, Keytaon came in the ninth grade, all of these kids have been around each other, so their experiences on and off the field have helped them.
“If Tevin had a great day, Keytaon applauded that. If Keytaon had a great day, Tevin applauded him. Same thing with (wide receiver) Devonta (Jason), (wide receiver) Travis Victor and (running back) Jakobe Walker. All those kids came in together, and it has been such a blessing. We only had one football and a bunch of talent, and we were able to spread it out.”
Gullatt, who had double-digit tackles in the state title game, had 189 for the season with 16 tackles for loss and two sacks. He also recorded seven quarterback hurries, two pass breakups and had a fumble recovery 90 yards for a touchdown.
The other three All-State linebackers are Covington’s Anthony Ford, Rummel’s Derrick Munson and Micah Baskerville of Evangel, all of whom had more than 100 tackles for the season.
Darion Mitchell of Barbe is the first of four defensive linemen after winning District 3-5A defensive MVP honors with 72 tackles, including nine for loss. Catholic’s Aaron Moffitt also is a district MVP and a returning All-State winner. Ponchatoula’s Tyrique Gibson had 48 tackles and 10 sacks, but was a dominant force up front for the Green Wave, as opposing coaches generally designed plays away from the UL-Lafayette commit. Evangel’s Davin Cotton, another district MVP on defense, had 14 sacks and returned three fumbles for scores.
The remaining defensive players are from the backfield, and they include returning All-Stater Garret Wallow of John Curtis who led the Patriots in tackles in four out of 12 games this season. He also had a safety, four interceptions and a key breakup with seconds remaining against St. Augustine to preserve victory.
Defensive back Corione Harris of Landry-Walker makes the team as a junior after being named honorable mention as a sophomore. He recorded 80 tackles and had 17 pass breakups. Scotlandville’s Kelvin Joseph (LSU commitment) had 67 tackles and three picks to go along with 22 pass breakups, and Acadiana’s Bralen Trahan was a standout for the Rams on offense, defense and special teams.
On offense, Bruce Jordan-Swilling of Brother Martin returns to the All-State team as a senior, finishing with more than 1,700 rushing yards and 28 touchdowns. Hahnville junior Anthony “Pooka” Williams rushed for 2,200 yards and 29 scores, and Sulphur’s J’Cobi Skinner had 2,263 yards on 298 carries with 21 touchdowns.
Alexandria’s Jorien Valien (63-1,001, 11TDs), Barbe’s Nate Briscoe (88-1,063, seven TDs) and Parkway’s Terrace Marshall (38-668, five touchdowns) are the All-State receivers.
On the offensive line, Acadiana’s Jonathan Simon (6-2, 253) led the vaunted Rams’ rushing attack. He was joined on the All-State team by West Monroe’s Jacob Ingram (6-3, 272), Jesuit’s Corey Dublin (6-3, 275), East Ascension’s Adrian Ealy (6-7, 300) and Catholic’s Zach Tom (6-3, 280).
Scotlandville quarterback Levi Lewis made the squad as its athlete. Lewis, a University of Louisiana at Lafayette commitment, was The Advocate’s All-Metro 5A/4A Offensive MVP in the Baton Rouge area and District 4-5A Offensive MVP after completing 171 of 292 pass attempts for 2,450 yards and 17 touchdowns against six interceptions. He also rushed 171 times for 1,577 yards and 23 touchdowns.
The Class 5A All-State kicker is St. Amant’s Briggs Bourgeois, a Southern Mississippi commitment who made 10 of 12 field goals.. Ponchatoula’s Carson Wyld is the punter for the second straight season and the returner is Amik Robertson of Thibodaux.

Class 4A

BY TREY LABAT
WRITTEN FOR THE LSWA
After last year, the Class 4A state title game was destined to be a rematch. Both Edna Karr and Neville proved throughout the 2016 season they were two of the best teams in the state.
This year, Karr exacted its revenge on Neville in the state title game. While the Cougars were a well-balanced team, quarterback Aldon Clark was the driving force behind Karr’s state title run and was rewarded with the Outstanding Offensive Player designation by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association on its Class 4A All-State team.
Senior defensive back Brad Stewart of McDonogh 35 was voted the Most Outstanding Defensive Player for his performance in helping McDonogh 35 reach the semifinals in Class 4A.
Warren Easton coach Jerry Phillips was chosen as the Class 4A Coach of the Year, with Jim Hightower of Division II state champion St. Thomas More also a top candidate for the award voted on by a panel of sportswriters from across the state.
Clark, of Karr, is the All State quarterback for the second straight season. He had 2,139 yards passing in the regular season and 27 touchdowns. Including the playoffs, Clark tallied more than 3,500 passing yards and 40 TDs.
Stewart led the McDonogh 35 defense with 111 tackles, 11 interceptions and 13 pass break-ups in the regular season.

Amite High coach Zephaniah Powell didn’t get the finish he was looking for in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.  Powell narrowly missed his first state title.
The Warriors lost 40-36 to back-to-back champion Lutcher 40-36 in the title game. However, Amite’s second-year coach earned his first Coach of the Year award from the Louisiana Sports Writers Association.
Powell, Erath running back Elijah Mitchell and De La Salle linebacker Josh Paul lead the LSWA’s Class 3A All-State football team selected by a panel of sportswriters from across the state.
Amite’s Powell guided the Warriors through trying times to reach the Class 3A title game. The Amite area was hit hard by the historic floods in August just before the start of the 2016 season but the Warriors still finished with an 11-4 record, which includes a Week 1 forfeit stemming from LHSAA sanctions in 2015.
Amite was forced to forfeit its semifinal appearance in 2015 due to a brawl in the quarterfinals but Powell and the seventh-seeded Warriors responded this year with quarterfinal and semifinal wins over the No. 2 and 3 seeds on the road.
Erath’s Mitchell, who led the state in rushing at the end of the regular season with 2,358 yards and 38 touchdowns on 227 carries, was voted the Outstanding Offensive Player on the 3A sqaud. The 6-foot, 215-pound senior also rushed for over 200 yards in one playoff game and is committed to Louisiana-Lafayette.
De La Salle’s Paul was voted the Outstanding Defensive Player after helping the Cavaliers to an 11-1 record and an appearance in the Division II semifinals. Paul finished the season with 74 tackles including nine for loss, one blocked punt, and two interceptions with two forced fumbles while recovering one fumble for a touchdown.
Lutcher’s Jontre Kirklin defended his spot at quarterback on the Class 3A. Kirklin accounted for 493 yards with four touchdowns in Lutcher’s win over Amite in the title game and 233 of those yards came on 30 carries.
Kirklin was joined on offense by teammate Al’Dontre Davis, Amite’s DeVonta Smith and Berwick’s Kenan Jones at the receiver positions. West Feliciana’s Davon Harris and Jennings’ Travis Etienne, the LSWA’s 2015 Outstanding Offensive Player who rushed for over 2,000 yards for the second straight season, were the other running backs. Harris led West Feliciana to the 3A semifinals.
Along the offensive line, Class 3A’s top five players included Marksville’s Nehemayeaux Smith, Kaplan’s Jerrick Romero, West Feliciana’s Jacob Fudge, University High’s Prince Pines and Parkview Baptist’s Will Teague.
St. Louis’ Adam Ieyoub is the Class 3A kicker and De La Salle’s Julien Gums was voted as the athlete.
On defense, lineman include returning All-Stater Ishmael Sopsher of Amite, Marksville’s Shawn Williams, De La Salle’s Jamiran James and Iowa’s Mark Mayes. In addition to Paul at linebacker, the position was also occupied by Kaplan’s Julius Johnson, Lutcher’s Rashaun Preston and Parkview Baptist’s Xavier Davis.
In the secondary, selections included Iowa’s Darius Daniels, Lutcher’s Dylan Recotta, Parkview Baptist’s Trent Kavanaugh and Marksville’s Qway Mingo. Winnfield’s Shelby Creel is the Class 3A punter and Iowa’s Andre Sam is the kick returner.

Class 2A

Written for the LSWA
Sterlington coach Jason Thompson said his team was heading to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome with nothing to lose in the Class 2A state final game against No. 2 seed Madison Prep.
Then the fourth-seeded Panthers won it all.
Sterlington, the No. 4 seed, claimed a 28-27 victory over Madison Prep in the Class 2A state final to give Thompson and his team the school’s first state title. The Panthers managed to knock off No. 1 seed Many and defending champion Kinder on the way to the title.
The last time Sterlington had been to the Superdome was 2002, more than a decade before the school set sights on Thompson, who was voted the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Class 2A Coach of the Year.
Madison Prep reached the finals undefeated thanks in part to the play of running back Tyrese Walker, the Class 2A Outstanding Offensive Player.
Walker, a 5-foot-10, 195-pound junior, rushed for 226 yards and three touchdowns in the the title game. He finished the season with 2,462 yards and 40 touchdowns on 245 carries. That included more than 900 yards in five playoff games.
Sean Badeaux of Menard was voted the Outstanding Defensive Player. The 6-0, 220-pound senior finished the season with 143 tackles, one fumble recovery and two caused fumbles.The standout player recorded 22 tackles against Avoyelles and 21 against Many.  A big part of Sterlington’s success this season is owed to the play of quarterback Carson Clowers. The 5-10, 145-pound junior passed for 1,263 yards and 15 touchdowns with two interceptions. He also rushed for 491 yards and eight touchdowns.
The All-State wide receivers are JeDan Jacob of Loreauville, Tank Davis of Calvary Baptist and Brian Savoie of Madison Prep.
Taylor Johnson of Kinder and A.J. Carter of Many are the running backs.
The offensive line consists of Kinder’s Colby Oliver, Springfield’s Maverick May, Madison Prep’s E’Darrius Anderson, Country Day’s Avery Jenkins and Glenn Bernard of Division III state champion Riverside Academy.
Andrew Rodrigue of St. Charles Catholic is the place kicker. Garrick Gray of Welsh is the athlete.
On the defensive line are Caleb Sampson of Northlake Christian, O’Cyrus Torrence of St. Helena, Troy James of Madison Prep and Bryan Jones of Madison Prep.
The linebackers are Patrick Burleigh of Notre Dame, Kendrick Smith of South Plaquemines, Dawson Snell of Menard and Badeaux.
The secondary consists of defensive backs Demetrius Brown of St. Helena, Samaj Colvin of Sterlington, Isaiah Smith of Many and West St. John’s Jamal Walters.
Will Hetzinger of St. Thomas Aquinas is the punter and Lloyd Nash of St. Charles Catholic is the kick returner.

Written for the LSWA
Logansport coach Kevin Magee got the storybook ending most coaches only dream of. Magee, who quarterbacked Logansport to a state title in 1995, watched his team erase a 20-6 deficit to beat Haynesville 34-28 in the Class 1A title game.
Now there’s a post-season win for Magee, who was voted the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Class 1A Coach of the Year. Logansport finished the season 14-0 and advanced to a state title game for the first time since winning 1A in 1995.
Magee helps leads a 1A team headlined by Outstanding Offensive Player Sam Philley of Oak Grove and Outstanding Defensive Player Chris Allen of Southern Lab.
Philley rushed for 1,302 yards and 23 touchdowns while catching 38 passes for 701
yards and nine touchdowns and serving as kicker for a Tigers team that reached
the semifinals.
Allen led Southern Lab to its second straight Division IV title and is the LSWA MVP for the second straight year. Allen finished with 82 tackles, with 14 tackles for loss and six sacks. Magee’s quarterback at Logansport, Dalton Shaw, and Logansport running back
Debell Crawford were selected along with running backs Philley, and Corey Russell of
Arcadia.
Offensive line selections were Joshua Mote of Oak Grove, Central Catholic’s Thomas Garber, Jarious Knowles of Haynesville and two Southern Lab linemen, Cordell Thomas and Cedrick Banks.
Samarick Paul of Central Catholic, Ronald LeBlanc of Ascension Episcopal and Southern Lab’s Xavier Bell made the team as wide receivers.

2015 All-State Football Teams

Class 5A

Written for the LSWA
Winning a state title doesn’t always guarantee post-season honors, but in Class 5A it was part of the process.
Two weeks after their teams played each other for the 5A title, Zachary High quarterback Lindsey Scott Jr. and John Ehret linebacker Michael Divinity are the top award winners on the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Class 5A All-State team.
Not all the top billing went to the 5A final participants. Dale Weiner, who coached Catholic High to its first state title in the Division I final a week earlier, is the Coach of the Year as selected by a panel of sportswriters from across the state.
Zachary’s Scott is the LSWA 5A Offensive Most Valuable Player for the second straight season. He compiled 5,002 total yards and accounted for 61 touchdowns while helping the Broncos win their first state title.
Scott passed for 3,039 yards and 33 TDs with just five interceptions. He also ran for 1,963 yards and 28 TDs.
Divinity, an Under Armour All-American, is the Defensive MVP. He led Ehret to the title game with 60.5 tackles, 13 sacks and two forced fumbles.
Catholic’s Weiner enjoyed a milestone season on multiple levels. He picked up his 300th career win early in the season and notched three straight come-from-behind wins en route to winning the Division I state title.
The offensive backfield also includes Catholic running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (1,338 rushing yards, 822 receiving yards, 20 TDs), Brother Martin’s Bruce Jordan-Swilling (1,884 rushing yards, 30 TDs) and Sam Houston’s Trevontai Thompson (1,750 rushing yards, 23 TDs).
Zachary’s Doug Coleman (62 catches, 1,482 yards, 15 TDs), Parkway’s Terrace Marshall (53-1,358, 14 TDs) and Natchitoches Central’s Brandon Rachal (62-1,093, 9 TDs) are the receivers.
Ponchatoula’s Donovaughn Campbell, John Curtis’ Willie Allen, Zachary’s  Kellton Hollins, Acadiana’s Ethan Bellman and Rummel’s Joe Oliver are the offensive linemen.  Parkway’s C.J. Morgan (753 receiving yards, 685 rushing yards, 22 total TDs) is the squad’s athlete, while Airline’s Gabe Rodriquez (7 of 8 field goals with a long of 42 yards) is the kicker.
Divinity is part of a linebacker corps that includes Ehret teammates DeJon Harris (83 tackles, 14 tackles for loss) and Robert Green (31 sacks). Acadiana’s Kevin Moore is the other linebacker.
The defensive line includes Catholic’s Aaron Moffitt (54 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, 11 sacks) Destrehan’s Glen Logan (54½  tackles, 5½ tackles for loss, 4 sacks), Rummel’s Briston Guidry (69 tackles 6½ sacks) and Denham Springs’ Caleb Roddy (66 tackles, 27 tackles for loss, 14 sacks).

Class 4A

By Brett Hudson
Written for the LSWA
Add another back-to-back accomplishment to Neville’s 2015 season: After winning the school’s first repeat state championship since 1983-84, the Tigers repeated the feat of four or more players on the Class 4A all-state team selected by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association.
The Neville representation is led by defensive tackle Rashard Lawrence, named the Defensive MVP in 4A. The Under Armour All-American led the Tigers in tackles and tackles for a loss. A pair of Neville offensive linemen, Blaze Van Buren and John Kade Lawrence, and kick returner Corey Straughter were also honored with all-state selections.
Cecilia running back Raymond Calais was named the Offensive MVP after running for 2,602 yards and 33 touchdowns.
Minden’s Spencer Heard was named the 4A Coach of the Year after taking over a Crimson Tide program that went 1-9 three years ago and leading it to the second round of the playoffs this season. Minden’s 9-3 2015 season included a win over 3A No. 1 North Webster and just one district loss.
Calais is joined at running back by a pair of juniors – Washington-Marion’s Jacobi Taylor and Livonia’s Patrick Queen – both of whom ran for over 1,800 yards. Taylor ran for 15 touchdowns and Queen ran for 24.
Calais’ teammate, Kenya Dartez, is one of a trio of senior wide receivers on the team, alongside Trevor Begue  of St. Thomas More and Jacq’co Price of Crowley. Plaquemine multi-purpose threat Wayne Toussaint was named the athlete after running for 804 yards and 10 touchdowns, catching 33 passes for 617 yards and eight touchdowns, returning kickoff for 477 yards and two touchdowns in addition to 14 pass breakups and six interceptions as a defensive back.
On the offensive line, Teurlings Catholic’s  Ashton Whaley, and North DeSoto’s Will Champion and Lionell Scott of Loranger join the Neville duo of Van Buren and John Kade Lawrence.
Edna Karr’s Aldon Clark earned the quarterback spot after leading the Cougars to the 4A state championship game.
Defensive lineman Daniel Crosley made the team for the third time after posting strong numbers as a starting running back and defensive linemen, amassing seven sacks and 15 tackles for losses despite being asked to play so much offense. Livonia’s Willie Baker made the 4A team a year after making the 3A team thanks to totals of 16 tackles for losses, 21 quarterback hurries and 11.5 sacks.
Crosley and Baker are joined on the defensive line by Neville’s Rashard Lawrence and Northside’s Tyler Shelvin.
Daniel Crosley’s twin brother, David, made the all-state team as a linebacker, along with Michael Leday of LaGrange, Justin Gaskin of North DeSoto and Ethan Broussard of  St. Thomas More. All four led their teams in tackles: Leday with 128, Gaskin, 117; Broussard, 115; and Crosley, 109.
The LaGrange defense also claims defensive back Alvinoski LaFleur, a two-time all-state safety who tallied seven interceptions and 104 tackles. Rounding out the secondary are Loranger’s Evan Johnson, a two-way starter with 10 pass breakups and over 1,000 rushing yards; Cecilia’s Keldrick Zeno and Plaquemine’s Todd Harris, who had 84 tackles and 22 pass breakups.

Class 1A

By Troy LaFleur
Written for the LSWA
The Kentwood Kangaroos and Southern Lab Kittens reigned supreme in Class 1A and Division IV football this season. The two District 6-1A rivals were well rewarded for their dominance on the 2015 Louisiana Sportswriters Association Class 1A All-State team.
Kentwood, which defeated Haynesville in the Class 1A championship game, was led by Shyheim Carter who was selected as the team’s athlete and Offensive MVP. The Under Armour All-American finished his senior season with 2,443 passing yards and 1,648 rushing yards with over 30 total touchdowns. Defensively he had 57 tackles, five interceptions and broke up 13 passes.
Southern Lab defeated St. Mary’s of Natchitoches in the Division IV title game and was led defensively by linebacker Chris Allen who was named the Defensive MVP. The 6-5, 230 pound junior finished the year with 108.5 tackles and 14 sacks.
Earning Coach of the Year honors was South Cameron head coach Mark Delaney who led the Tarpons to an 8-4 finish in the second round of the 1A playoffs. South Cameron, which has the smallest enrollment among football playing schools, had gone 4-36 in the previous four years combined and hadn’t had a winning season since 2007. Their first round playoff win over Ringgold was the school’s first since 2002.
Joining Carter at the skill positions on offense are Vermilion Catholic senior quarterback Hunter Frith (3,712 yards 43 TDs), Basile senior running back Gabe Fontenot (1,951 yards 23 TDs), Central Catholic senior running back Stefano Guarisco (2,728 yards 39 TDs), Highland Baptist sophomore running back Brontre Griffin (3,079 yards 47 TDs), Hamilton Christian junior receiver Kenan Fontenot (635 yards 10 TDs), Vermilion Catholic senior receiver Tyler Derouen (1,364 yards 14 TDs) and Plain Dealing junior receiver Keldrick Carper (947 yards 13 TDs).
Selected to the offensive line were Central Catholic junior Thomas Garber, Hamilton Christian senior Easton Massey, East Beauregard senior Elliott Reeves, Kentwood senior Jalen Bickham and Haynesville junior Jarius Knowles.
Selected to the all senior defensive line were South Cameron’s Tyler Stelly (89 tackles 21 TFLs), Oak Grove’s James Turner (83 tackles 9 sacks), Kentwood’s Wayne Brown (87 tackles 14 sacks) and Josh Lucky (80 tackles 13.5 sacks) of St. Mary’s.
Joining Allen at the linebacker spots are seniors Blaise Hebert (156 tackles) of Basile, William Noegal (158 tackles) of Vermilion Catholic and Julian Marcantel (134 tackles) of Hamilton Christian.
Rounding out the defense at defensive back are Merryville senior Hunter Echols (108 tackles), Central Catholic junior Jalen Johnson (68 tackles 4 INTs), Varnado senior Delrick Abrams (66 tackles 9 INTs) and Southern Lab senior Jonard Robinson (10 INTs).
The specialists are Southern Lab senior return specialist Curtlan Williams (7 punt return TDs, 616 return yards), Cedar Creek junior punter Matthew Pike (40.1 yard average) and South Cameron senior kicker Nelson Deras (9 of 10 field goals).
Other finalists for Coach of the Year were Lee Doty of St. Mary’s, Jonathan Foster of Kentwood and Michael Desormeaux of Ascension Episcopal.
