2026

Winnsboro WR Camden Capehart: Capehart, a Mississippi State commit, earned First Team All-District honors for Winnsboro last season with 1,379 receiving yards and 25 touchdowns.

Waco Connally ATH Jamarion Vincent: Vincent, a Baylor commit, was named First Team All-District Utility Player because he does it all for Waco Connally.

Wolfforth Frenship WR Chase Campbell: Campbell secured First Team All-District wide receiver honors with 82 receptions for 1,511 yards and 18 touchdowns.

Iowa Colony WR Jayden Warren: Warren caught 14 touchdowns and a First Team All-District wide receiver selection for Iowa Colony, but his athleticism translates to the basketball court and track.
