Cale Cornman, MV-BT/Liberty – CLICK HERE FOR MORE ON CORNMAN
A force of nature around the line of scrimmage, Cornman was a dominant two-way player for the Eagles. The 6-foot-3, 235-pound middle linebacker had 182 tackles, 35 for loss, and three blocked kicks for a defense that held six of 13 opponents to one touchdown and held three district champions to a combined 29 points. He was also the best offensive lineman for a Liberty offense that averaged 422 yards per game. Cornman will play collegiately at Missouri Western.
Anthony Riley, Parkview – CLICK HERE FOR MORE ON RILEY
The definition of a “workhorse” running back, Riley rushed for an area-high 2,040 yards and 27 touchdowns for Parkview. His individual splits are even scarier. Riley had four 200-yard games, as well as a 330-yard, six-touchdown performance against Glendale. He walks away from Parkview with 648 carries for 3,788 yards and 53 touchdowns in his final two seasons.
Malachi Stout, Kickapoo CLICK HERE TO READ MORE ABOUT STOUT
Nobody had more of a knack for finding the end zone than Malachi Stout. The 5-foot-6 senior helped Kickapoo reach the Class 6 state semifinals, rushing for 1,474 yards and 33 touchdowns on 250 carries, including eight 100-yard games. Stout was a weapon in the passing game as well, turning 21 receptions into 379 yards and seven touchdowns. He also returned a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns. Stout amassed 3,539 all-purpose yards and 57 touchdowns after missing much of his sophomore season with a torn ACL.
Logan Tyler, Nixa
No player in the Ozarks was more impactful in all three phases of the game than Logan Tyler. He earned All-COC Large honors as an athlete, defensive back, kicker and punter. The Florida State commit is largely known for his monster leg (45 touchbacks in 64 kickoffs; season-long 48-yard field goal), but Tyler is a pure football player. He racked up 1,607 total yards and 17 offensive touchdowns but also had 69 tackles and four interceptions, including a pick-6, on the defensive side of the ball.
