2022 PRzMN Preseason All-State: 9man Defense

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After a lot of hype and promotion by yours truly, the time has finally arrived and we are set to begin the 2022 Minnesota Preseason All-State series. It's my favorite feature to do every offseason, as nothing can make me feel more prepared for the upcoming MN prep season as watching tape on every single high school football team in the state, from 9man to 6A and everyone in between. To begin, I started with the 60 prep programs that will play 9man football in 2022, and boy am I excited about these offensive and defensive squads. From returning All-State picks to new-to-the-scene prospects at positions all around the gridiron, I can't wait to let our wonderful subscribers know who the returning studs are in the 9man classification of MN football. Before we begin, I do want to mention that this team is primarily chosen from Hudl and game film, so the programs that do not subscribe to Hudl this season are at a disadvantage, so I may have missed some worthy selections for this preseason list. If I did miss anyone, I apologize in advance, it wasn't intentional, and please email me at: oliver@prepredzone.com if you think I missed a big-time prospect. Get to know the <em>2022 PrepRedzoneMN Preseason 9man Defensive All-State Team</em> below, thanks for reading, and congratulations to all of the selections! It's going to be a great season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><em>Preseason Player of the Year:</em> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='295961' first='Mason' last='Kolling'] </strong>(<em>Kingsland) </em>Senior.
