Introducing the 2024 Postseason All-TSF Team

There are 78 players representing 44 different schools from 16 conferences, leagues and districts that make up our 16th annual Postseason All-TSF Team.

Anderson leads the way with five selections. Moeller, St. Xavier, Lakota West, Cooper and Winton Woods had four selections. Coming in with three All-TSF members were Trotwood-Madison, Taft and Princeton. There are also 103 Honorable Mention selections.

Three players were named First Team for a second straight year – Tucker Kattus (St. Xavier), Justin Hill (Winton Woods) and PJ Nelson (Princeton). Austin Alexander (Cooper) was named First Team All-TSF for a third consecutive season.

First Team members Isaiah Johnson (Cooper), Max Merz (Highlands), Gabe Verdon (Hamilton), Jacob Savage (Ryle), Jai’Mier Scott (Mount Healthy) and Garrett Lundy (Waynesville) were all Second Team honorees in 2023. First Team members Leland Gantz (Centerville), Grant Beerman (Lakota West) and Connor Yeager (Clermont Northeastern) were Third Team honorees in 2023.

Quarterbacks Cam O’Hara (Cooper) was named Second Team and Justice Burnam (Anderson) was named Third Team for a second straight season. Second Team members Dylan Stewart (Conner), Brady Ballart (South Dearborn) and Kage Payne (Kings) were Third Team selections a year ago.

The criteria for selecting nominees included looking at players that were 2024 OPSMA All-Ohio (first, second, third team and honorable mention-all seven divisions), OPSMA First Team All-Southwest District (coaches nominations), First and Second Team All-NKY, NKFCA Top 26, IFCA Top 50, IFCA Junior and Senior All-State Teams, select members from EIAC Class 3A & Class 4A teams and wild cards (players our staff liked after covering games this year and felt were worthy of being on the list).

Fan voting for the second and third All-TSF teams counted for 30% towards a players final ranking. The other 70% is determined by the TSF staff and coaches rankings. There were 61,429 total votes cast.

The members of the All-TSF Teams, the TSF Teams of the Year, Players of the Year and finalists from Indiana, Dayton, Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati will be recognized at our annual awards show on Monday, February 17th, 2025 at the Holy Grail-Banks – TSF Year in Review Show.
