A month after their record-tying sixth consecutive state football championship, Sedgwick County placed six players on the Eight-Man All-State Football Team.

The Colorado High School Activities Association released first-team, second-team and honorable mention honors on Tuesday for Classes 5A-1A, Eight-Man and Six-Man. Players are nominated by leagues and teams are voted on by head coaches from across the state. 

Cougars senior quarterback Jared Ehmke, who threw for five touchdowns and rushed for another in the state championship, is joined on the first-team by seniors Kaleb Fowler, Terrance Heath, Fabian Lopez and Jaciel Villalobos, and junior Nolan Carlson. Villalobos and Heath each caught a pair of touchdowns in Sedgwick County's 72-32 victory over Sanford on Dec. 3. Carlson was one of three juniors who made the first team.

Senior Tate Goddard earned second team honors. 

Cougars Head Coach Chris Michel was named the "Coach of the Year." Sanford's Kelton Gartrell was the "Player of the Year."
