The Kansas High School Football Coaches Association has announced its All-State and All-Class football teams.
The teams were chosen by member coaches, who met and went over nominations and film before making their selections. Only seniors who have coaches who are members of the association were eligible to be named to the All-State and All-Class teams, 1A through 6A. The KFBCA also named head and assistant coaches of the year in each 11-player classification.
