Three defenders who helped the Greenville Lions to their first
winning season since 2003 earned first-team honors on the
All-District 10-4A football team.
Senior end Manon Steward, senior inside linebacker Ezekiel
Prado and junior outside linebacker Tristian Farley made the
first-team defense after leading the Lions to a 6-4 final
record and fifth-place finish in the tough 10-4A. All three
players ranked among the team’s top tacklers on a defense that
allowed 354.6 yards per game.
Seven more Lions earned second-team all-district honors on
both offense and defense.
Quarterback Alton Dennis, tight end Jarvis Bruner, offensive
tackle Colton Reed and running back Dakieston Williams made
the second offense. Dennis rushed for a team-high 1,190 yards
and 10 touchdowns on 143 carries and was 61-of-131 passing for
950 yards and 12 TDs. Bruner caught 15 passes for 385 yards
and seven TDs. Williams rushed for 792 yards and 13 TDs on 129
carries.
Outside linebacker Desjuan Morgan, cornerback Dominique
Mitchell and safety Cobbie Johnson represented the Lions on
the second-team defense. Johnson also earned second-team
honors on special teams as a return specialist.
Royse City inside linebacker J.R. Arredondo, who earned
second-team honors, shared the sophomore of the year honor on
defense with Allen Melson of Newman Smith.
Royse City wide receiver Kris Smith made the first-team
offense.
Royse City running back Ryan Fedric and offensive lineman
Ethan Morris made the second-team offense and outside
linebacker Ryon Phillips made the second-team defense.
