All-State football honors were released Thursday in Pennsylvania with four local players making the short list.
It should come as no surprise our Big 22 Player of the Year was All-State in Class AA. Hickory junior, 6'1, 190 pound DeShawn Coleman broke a school record with 2,393 yards rushing and 34 touchdowns. He averaged over 14 yards per carry.
