Class 2A Football End of the Season Awards
My 2020 Class 2A End of the Season Awards. Picking is never easy and usually takes me a while to decide on any of these awards. I physically could not make every game, so I used stats, read newspaper articles, and tried to watch any film available. I will not lie, and I leaned heavily towards teams that made the playoffs for picking First/Second team all-State. If you would like an award mailed or emailed to you, please message me on Facebook or Email at anthony5910@gmail.com. Remember these awards are not from CHSAA but from Mile High Prep Report, CHSAAA will release the official All State Awards soon.
Quick Note: If your team has not posted stats it is very hard for me to give awards to players with no stats even if your team is doing good, I cannot guess stats. Also only 1 player per offense and defensive teams. If you think i missed somone message me and I will take a look
One other Note: Being a lineman in high school it also hurt me inside not giving any offensive lineman awards. Just know that everyone on this list needs a good offensive line!
