MileHigh Prep Reports Class 1A Football End of the Season Awards

MileHigh Prep Reports Class 1A Football End of the Season Awards

2025 Class 1A End of the Season Awards.  These awards are never easy, and I go back and forth on who is where and what awards are given out. I also could not be at every game and rely on stats and film.  If no stats are available, I cannot pick your player.  Making the playoffs and having a deep playoff run will matter with these awards!  I will also try and avoid giving multiple awards to just 1 player, so if you get Player of the Year, I will give awards to other players for more recognition!

These awards are not from CHSAA!! These are from MileHigh Prep Report and have no affect on the CHSAA All-State Awards!

Quick 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!
