Lutcher’s Winfield, STM’s Beckwith Highlight LSWA Class 4A All-State Selections
Written for the LSWA
Two players who led their teams to LHSAA championships and a coach who returned to a title game for the first time in more than a decade headline the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Class 4A All-State football team.
Quarterback D’Wayne Winfield of Lutcher was voted the Offensive Player of the Year, while St. Thomas More defensive back Nicholas Beckwith was selected as the Defensive Player of the Year.
Dennis Dunn, who led North DeSoto to its first title-game appearance, was voted Coach of the Year for the squad selected by a panel of sportswriters from across the state.
Dunn, who won nine titles at Shreveport’s Evangel Christian, coached the Griffins to a 12-2 record and a runner-up finish to Lutcher and Winfield in the Division II nonselect final.
Winfield led the Bulldogs to their ninth LHSAA title with 4,657 yards of total offense and 70 touchdowns. The recent UL commitment passed for 2,187 yards with 32 TDs and rushed for 2,477 yards and 38 TDs.
Beckwith led STM to the Division II select title with 95 tackles and 6 interceptions, 2 of which he returned for TDs.
