Louisiana Preseason All-State Teams | Small Schools Offense

Another unusual and challenging football season officially kicks off Labor Day weekend. High schools around Louisiana are still coping with the impacts of COVID-19 and now, too, Hurricane Ida’s run through the heavily populated southeast toe of the state. But the talent and competition — and escape — provided by one of The Boot’s favorite seasons — along with carnival and crawfish — have finally arrived. And, at the high school level, some of the most talented classes in several years lead the way. As we get started, Prep Redzone recognizes a pair of Preseason All-State teams: a Small Schools Team representing Class 1A and Class 2A, and a Large Schools Team representing Class 3A, Class 4A and Class 5A. Each team features 40 players: 20 on offense (12 by position, one flex and seven honorable mentions) and 20 on defense and special teams (14 by position and six honorable mentions). <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>PREP REDZONE</strong></span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>LOUISIANA PRESEASON ALL-STATE TEAM</strong></span></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>SMALL SCHOOLS OFFENSE</strong></span></p> <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>OFFENSIVE LINEMEN (5)</strong></span> <strong>OL: [player_tooltip player_id="136548" first="Bo" last="Bordelon"] — 6-5, 250 OL — Newman (2022)</strong> <strong>OL: [player_tooltip player_id="136554" first="Ashanti" last="Cole"] — 6-4, 300 OL — Red River (2022)</strong> <strong>OL: [player_tooltip player_id="136562" first="Andy" last="Weatherford"] — 6-4, 295 — Ouachita Christian (2022)</strong> <strong>OL: [player_tooltip player_id="136581" first="Fitzgerald" last="West"] Jr. — 6-2, 310 OL/DL — Lafayette Christian (2022)</strong> <strong>OL: [player_tooltip player_id="136559" first="Bryant" last="Williams"] — 6-7, 315 OL/DL — Grand Lake (2022)</strong> &nbsp; <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>TIGHT END (1)</strong></span> <strong>TE: [player_tooltip player_id="138427" first="Will" last="Randle"] — 6-4, 220 TE — Newman (2023)</strong> &nbsp; <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>WIDE RECEIVERS (3)</strong></span> <strong>WR: [player_tooltip player_id="138441" first="Makai" last="Donaldson"] — 6-4, 200 WR — Newman (2023)</strong> <strong>WR: [player_tooltip player_id="138439" first="Omarion" last="Miller"] — 6-2, 195 WR North Caddo (2023)</strong> <strong>WR: [player_tooltip player_id="136514" first="Tristan" last="Wiley"] — 6-2, 185 WR — Ouachita Christian (2022)</strong> &nbsp; <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>RUNNING BACKS (2)</strong></span> <strong>RB: [player_tooltip player_id="138471" first="Elijah" last="Davis"] —5-10, 210 RB — Riverside Academy (2023)</strong> <strong>RB: [player_tooltip player_id="136492" first="Tra’Klayn" last="Reno"] — 6-0, 200 ATH — Catholic (New Iberia) (2022)</strong> &nbsp; <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>QUARTERBACK (1)</strong></span> <strong>QB: [player_tooltip player_id="127701" first="Landry" last="Lyddy"] — 6-0, 190 QB — Calvary Baptist (2022)</strong> &nbsp; <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>FLEX/ATHLETE (1)</strong></span> <strong>FLEX: [player_tooltip player_id="138484" first="Arch" last="Manning"] — 6-3, 190 QB — Newman (2023)</strong> &nbsp; <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Honorable Mentions:</strong></span> Griffin Cooley — 6-1, 175 ATH — Kinder (2023) [player_tooltip player_id="127763" first="Ethan" last="Frey"] — 6-5, 225 QB — Rosepine (2022) [player_tooltip player_id="136571" first="Landon" last="Mayeaux"] — 6-0, 205 OL — Calvary Baptist (2022) Micah Miller — 6-0, 240 OL — Lafayette Christian (2022) [player_tooltip player_id="138277" first="Khai" last="Prean"] — 6-1, 190 ATH — Ascension Catholic (2023) Donald Smith — 5-10, 170 ATH — South Plaquemines (2023) [player_tooltip player_id="136470" first="Wydette" last="Williams"] — 6-1, 175 QB/ATH — General Trass (2022) &nbsp; &nbsp;
