Great recognition.
NG Hernandez and RB Isaiah Nguyen played well enough to earn a spot too. Hernandez is the best soph defensive lineman we’ve had in a while.
I bet 290+ pound Bryce Loftin will be excited to learn he received all district honors as a receiver.
These selections must be based on district play only. Jeff Joseph ultimately achieved far more then the FBM coach who was selected as coach of the year. And Landon Guarnere made play after big play late in the season.

As is Jansen Ware. I suspect he’ll see more D1 offers after the way he handled SOC defensive ends who have D1 offers.
Mason Droddy was the best defensive player on the team in 2022. Undersized but a fast, hard hitting tackler. He was the heart of that very good defense.
Loved watching that kid.
Pretty sure that happens after Christmas. I expect at least 2. One on defense and one on offense. If PNG had been the victors and a few key players had bigger games, maybe 3 or 4 all-state selections.
Here’s a look at past selections.
Post Season Honors - PN-G Indians Football
All-State and All-American Honors There have been 121 All-State and 4 All-American selections since the inception of the football program in 1925. Congratulations to all these young men for their outstanding play and recognition. But we would be remiss for not also congratulating their coaches...

2022 All-District - PN-G Indians Football
21 players from the Indians Region 3 champion and state final team earned all-district honors. Congratulations to these players as well as every player on the tea, on a terrific 2022 season. Not everyone can win a post season honor but every player on the squad contributed to the 13-3 record...

Who makes these decisions? And what is a "utility" player for special teams? I don't recall seeing Shea on any of the special teams.
Edit: BTW, these are objective questions, nothing personal, and I don't have a dog in this hunt, etc. My sincere congrats to all of these young men.

Don’t know who came up with this, but can’t imagine anyone but Joseph being selected as Coach of the Year in 9-5A-D2.Here’s a detailed all-district list.

Agree. Only reasonable explanation is they decided based on district play. Same reason Guarnere isn’t first team offense.

Yes it is all based on District play.

That’s for sure
I definitely give all the WRs credit
But he stepped up when the spotlight was on for sure
And to go from defense back to offense at first just here and there to more full time to favorite target was impressive
These guys need to be playing next year
Joseph should win 5A DII Coach of the year for the entire state. Id be surprised if he doesnt
That’s the Dave Campbell Texas Football award. They’ll probably pick the SOC coach again even though PN-G’s story and improvement is more impressive.

Guarnere was put in an odd position due to him going both ways in the beginning and never establishing enough stats in one position during district play. He became well established at receiver in post play and It is very unfortunate for him and other's like Gardiner, and Landry who couldn't build their district stats during district play due to injuries. But, they all three were huge contributors to the success of the team, and I hope to see all three of them get ALL STATE recognitions.
TOTALLY agree!
