But here's where it gets exciting: The Oregonian/OregonLive has unveiled its highly anticipated Class 4A All-State Teams, a list that's sure to spark debate among fans and players alike.
This year's selections, determined by a vote of the state's coaches, highlight the incredible talent emerging from Oregon's high school football scene.

Cascade High School Dominates:
Cascade High School emerges as a powerhouse, claiming three major awards. Bryce Kuenzi takes home Offensive Player of the Year, Matthew Hinkle secures Defensive Player of the Year, and Shane Hedrick is honored as Coach of the Year. This trifecta of accolades solidifies Cascade's position as a force to be reckoned with in Oregon football.
First Team Standouts:
The First Team Offense boasts a formidable lineup, featuring senior quarterback Joe Janney from Henley, senior running backs Staton Barnes (Junction City) and Bryce Kuenzi (Cascade), and senior wide receivers Griffyn Boomer (Tillamook) and Rocco De La Rosa (Philomath). The First Team Defense is equally impressive, with senior defensive linemen Bekham Hibbert (La Grande) and Matthew Hinkle (Cascade) leading the charge alongside senior linebackers Brody Buzzard (Marist Catholic) and Morrisen Craig (Cascade).
Beyond the First Team:
The depth of talent in Oregon's Class 4A is evident in the Second and Third Teams, as well as the Honorable Mentions. Players like Scappoose's junior quarterback Will Kessi, Marshfield's senior linebacker Kaleb Fox, and Estacada's senior running back Blake Barger showcase the state's promising future.
