Other Wildcat boys honored were junior Hayden Pardoe on the second team, senior Cayde McCloskey on the third team and senior Brett Gerlach on the conference all-defensive team.
On the girls’ side, Lady Wildcat junior Kiahna Jones was accorded second team honors and senior Mia Kopyscianski third team recognition.
