Depth up front will be what the 2017 All-TriState Football defensive squad will be remembered for. Pass rushers and anchors in the middle took center stage this past fall. It was another year with an abundance of talent that did not disappoint.

Linebackers Cris Oats and Mason Parris repeat as First Team All-TSF performers. Joining them with a second appearance on the first unit is lineman Malik Vann. Kam Butler was a First Team selection as a tight end in ’16.

Big school conferences dominate the Second Team. Seven of the 11 members are juniors. Next season promises to bring big things as well.

Join us as we recognize all members of the 2017 Postseason All-TSF Team, Player of the Year winners from Kentucky, Indiana, Cincinnati, Dayton, Player of the year finalists from all of those areas and TSF Player of the Week winners as they will be recognized at our upcoming TSF Year in Review Show on Monday, February 19th at The Holy Grail – Banks in downtown Cincinnati.
