RB:   [player_tooltip player_id='1656855' first='Adam' last='Malik'], JR, Carroll   Malik emerged very quickly in his first year as a starter into the centerpiece of the Tigers' offense and one of the best RBs in the conference. Malik led the 3A conference with 1514 yards (7.8 YPC) while scoring 18 TDs, helping guide Carroll to a 5-game winning streak to push the team back into the playoffs.   [player_tooltip player_id='1238514' first='Kasen' last='Thomas'], SR, Bishop Heelan   The star LB/RB prospect was once again the center of attention for the Crusaders; a one-man wrecking crew who paved the way for Bishop Heelan to reach the state championship game. Thomas ran for 1405 yards (6.5 YPC) and a conference-high 23 TDs. The 4-star recruit will be taking his talents with him to the Hawkeyes going forward.   [player_tooltip player_id='1844927' first='Ethan' last='McNeal'], JR, Atlantic   After showing promising results on limited reps his sophomore year, McNeal stepped into the starting RB role and thrived pounding the rock for the Trojans, rushing for 1331 yards (6.6 YPC) and 14 TDs as a junior.   WR:   [player_tooltip player_id='1850786' first='Jameson' last='Gregoire'], JR, Central DeWitt   Leading the way for the most explosive passing attack in the conference, Gregoire grew quickly from having only 6 catches his sophomore year, to leading the conference with 858 yards on 45 receptions (19.1 YPC) and 11 TDs.   [player_tooltip player_id='1687437' first='Brady' last='Meadows'], SR, Central DeWitt   Alongside with Gregoire, Meadows helped shape with of the best WR tandems in the conference which helped their QB lead the 3A group in passing yards last season.

TE:   [player_tooltip player_id='1361102' first='Colton' last='Schneider'], JR, Harlan Community   Schneider had big shoes to fill this season at the TE position following the departure of Josef Reisz, but so far, he's proven to be a capable component for the Cyclones' passing game. Schneider finished with 382 yards on 26 receptions and 5 TDs in 2025.   OL:   [player_tooltip player_id='1840904' first='Jack' last='Guy'], SR, Humboldt   While Humboldt unfortunately took a big step back following their state championship appearance last season, Guy remained a vital fixture to the Wildcats' offense, serving as a reliable Center for his new starting QB through the 2025 season.   Max Aesoph, JR, Bishop Heelan   Aesoph emerged as a vital component toward the Crusaders' offense, serving as a solid Tackle that helped open up the passing game a lot more to balance out the dangerous run-game led by Thomas.   [player_tooltip player_id='1361129' first='Cole' last='Nohrenberg'], SR, Webster City   Webster City's offense struggled to find the same effect in their potent run-game from previous seasons, but Nohrenberg remained a vital leader up front as a run-blocking Tackle, helping guide the offense to over 2000+ total rushing yards once again. Nohrenberg will bring his skillset with him to Dordt to play football at the next level.   [player_tooltip player_id='1242258' first='Isaac' last='Harrington'], SR, Nevada   Playing at Left Guard, Harrington remained an important fixture for the Cubs' well-balanced offense, playing impressively well in the postseason to pull off an unexpected run to the 3A championship title this season.

First Team Defense:   [player_tooltip player_id='1849099' first='Isaiah' last='Lange'], SO, Mount Pleasant   One of the biggest breakout stars perhaps in the entire state last season, Lange exploded onto the scene as a sophomore as he led the conference with 13 sacks to go with 41 tackles (27 solo) and 18.5 TFLs.

LB:   [player_tooltip player_id='1241540' first='Jaxon' last='Anderson'], SR, Mount Vernon   Mount Vernon's defense didn't quite reach the same levels of success as they had in 2024, but their 45 total sacks as a unit still led the 3A conference by a wide margin. Anderson returned as the most effective leader of the pass-rush unit, recording 79.5 tackles (61 solo), 27.5 TFLs, 12 sacks, a fumble recovery, and an interception returned for a TD.

[player_tooltip player_id='1532898' first='Maddox' last='Kelley'], JR, Solon   A rare feat to earn an all-state selection at all three aspects of the game, Kelley stood out at WR, DB, and punt returner, but it was his defensive performance that earned him a first-team selection on this list. Kelley finished with 41 tackles (34 solo), 3 TFLs, a sack, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, and 6 interceptions with 2 returned for TDs.   [player_tooltip player_id='2088789' first='Isaac' last='Brownlee'], JR, Clear Lake   One of the best pure coverage defenders in the state, Brownlee was a one-man island who was able to completely shut down his receivers, finishing with a whopping 21 passes defended to go with 20 tackles (15 solo), 2.5 TFLs, and 3 interceptions with 1 returned for a TD.   First Team Special Teams:   K:   Gavin Egeland, SR, Nevada   An all-purpose standout for the Cubs, Egeland's talents were also displayed in the kicking game as he was one of the most effective placekickers in the state. Egeland made all 9 of his field goal attempts with a season long of 45 while finishing 35 of 36 on extra points and hitting 27 touchbacks on 57 kickoffs.   P:   [player_tooltip player_id='1616422' first='JP' last='Elbert'], JR, Wahlert Catholic   Elbert perfored well in his first year at starting QB for the Golden Eagles, and he proved to be competent playing on all 4 downs, including when it was time to punt.
