Continue ReadingEight memorable games during a three-day span at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans punctuated Louisiana’s high school football season as the LHSAA reunited its state championships into a single location and event.
That familiar Prep Classic dynamic capped an adjusted postseason that, for the the first time, featured eight brackets (four select divisions and four nonselect divisions) instead of the nine (five nonselect classes and four select divisions) of the previous nine years or the five prior to the select/nonselect split.
Each matchup — themselves a mix of consistent and first-time meetings — featured its share of impressive performances.
And, once again, Prep Redzone Louisiana would like to recognize the best with its Louisiana All-Prep Classic Teams.
A Small Schools Team representing the Division III and Division IV levels and a Large Schools Team representing the Division I and Division II levels will each feature 40 players: 20 on offense (13 first-team and seven honorable mentions) and 20 on defense and special teams (14 first-team and six honorable mentions).
