As if making an improbable run to a second consecutive Class 5A state championship wasn’t enough, the Acadiana High Wreckin’ Rams saw two of their own claim two of the state’s top individual honors.
AHS head coach Ted Davidson was voted Coach of the Year and defensive back Ronald Broussard was tabbed as the Outstanding Defensive Player for a second consecutive season on the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Class 5A All-State team.
Quarterback Lindsey Scott Jr., who led his team to its first semifinal appearance in decades, was voted the Outstanding Offensive Player on the team selected by a panel of sportswriters from across the state.
Davidson, who led the Rams to their sixth state championship-game appearance, helped Acadiana overcome four regular season losses to win the school’s fourth state title. Ponchatoula’s Hank Tierney also was considered for coaching honor.
Broussard, a 5-9 175-pound senior, continued to be a shutdown corner for the Rams’ defense and he ended his career as the school’s all-time leader in interceptions with 23.
Scott, who was the District 4-5A MVP, passed for 2,231 yards and 24 touchdowns, while rushing for 965 yards and 15 touchdowns en route to leading Zachary to the semifinals where they lost to the Rams.
Broussard was one of three Rams players to earn All-State honors as Bry’kiethon Mouton was voted as the tight end and Caden Cunningham was elected as one of five offensive lineman.
The remainder of the offensive all-state unit included receivers Stanley Morgan of St. Augustine and Jesuit’s Kalija Lipscomb. The other offensive linemen were Ryan Hanley of Rummel, Pineville’s Cody Ford, Jesuit’s Jeff White, West Monroe’s Logan Currington.
Catholic High-Baton Rouge’s Derrius Guice of Catholic, Shaw’s Trey Ragas, Destrehan’s Will Matthews were picked as the running backs. Kicker Jack Gonsoulin of Catholic and athlete Christian Campbell, Ponchatoula’s quarterback, compete the offense.
Isaiah Buggs of Ruston, Rummel’s Briston Guidry, Thibodaux’s Marquis Garman, Barbe’s Chris Livings were the defensive linemen selected The linebackers picked were Dwaine Thomas of Hahnville, Byrd’s Krishun Cash, Mandeville’s Matthew Scanlon and Sam Houston’s Mason Knighton.
