Back 
A trio of Frenship Tigers leads a sizable South Plains contingent on the Texas Associated Press Sports Editors Class 4A All-State Football team.
Running back D’Maujeric Tucker, Kicker Josh Sparkman and defensive back Cade Davis from Frenship were all named to the first team.
Tucker was one of the top players in the area in any classification, rushing for 1,868 yards and 25 touchdowns during the regular season on 219 carries and lifting the Tigers to a berth in the Division II regional final against Wichita Falls Rider.
Sparkman was the model of consistency on special teams in the regular season, hitting on all 13 field goal attempts and gong 42 of 44 on PAT kicks.
Davis was a ball-hawk in the Tigers secondary, picking off eight passes and breaking up 10 more while recording 25 tackles, 12 solo.
Several area athletes earned honorable mention: offensive lineman Dalyn Bearden, defensive linemen Carson Dunn and Kyle Rutherford, linebacker Stephen Smith and defensive back Peyton Elliott of Frenship; and offensive lineman Trevor Lee, quarterback Jacob Bartholomae, running back Travon Benton and kicker Davis Williamson of Monterey.
Little Elm running back Ke’aun Kinner was named Offensive Player of the Year while Lancaster defensive lineman Daeshon Hall was chosen as Defensive Player of the Year.
