Another historic football season in Shelby County added another mark on Sunday, Dec. 18 when the All-State football team was released, featuring the state’s best football players from the 2022 season.

On that list, 20 players from Shelby County were honored following their extraordinary efforts in leading their respective teams to special seasons.

Following their fourth state championship in a row, the Thompson Warriors had five players make the Class 7A team.

Thompson had four players named to the 7A first team.

On the first team offense included Stanton Ramil, Peter Woods, Seth Hampton and Anquon Fegans

A senior offensive lineman for Thompson, Ramil stepped up his game during the postseason for the Warriors. His blocking in the passing game and rushing attack were extremely beneficial for Thompson during the State Championship against Auburn.

Woods was a dominant presence up front for Thompson in his senior season. Defeating teams with every team’s eyes glued on him, he managed to total 89 tackles, 24 tackles for loss and 11 sacks that led him to his fourth consecutive championship.

Hampton was the leading tackler for the Warriors in the 2022 season. He totaled 99 tackles, including 70 by himself. In addition, Hampton put together 18 tackles for loss and three sacks with five interceptions.

In his sophomore year, Fegans totaled 67 tackles with one tackle for loss. Fegan had nine interceptions and three pick-sixes.

Joining the Warriors on the Class 7A All-State first team was one player from the newly 7A classified Chelsea team as well.

Senior kicker for the Chelsea Hornets, Jack Seymour finished 22-23 on extra points this season and made all three of his field goals with a long of 42 yards. He also totaled 1,411 yards on 34 points and downed 11 punts inside the 20-yard line. 

On the 7A All-State second team was Thompson’s AJ Green and Oak Mountain’s Garrett Murphy.

Green was a force to be reckoned with for the Warriors during the special run to their season but during Thompson’s fourth consecutive state title. The junior running back totaled 1,453 yards and 17 touchdowns on 207 carries, including a 147-yard and two-touchdown performance in the state championship game.

A senior at Oak Mountain, Murphy totaled 112 solo tackles and 54 assists during his final season for the Eagles. He also totaled 12 tackles for loss, two sacks and three interceptions.

Chelsea’s Emmerson Russell and Oak Mountain’s Sawyer Smith were both recognized in the 7A honorable mentions.

After facing an injury that affected him for most of Russell’s junior season at Chelsea, the running back still managed to total 1,130 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground in addition to 175 receiving yards and two touchdowns. 

A Wide receiver for Oak Mountain, Smith covered a lot of ground for the Eagles in his junior season.

In the 6A classification, three total players from the county earned a spot on the All-State second team, including two from Calera and one from Pelham.

Braylyn Farrington and Michael Banks-Mason both earned a spot on the second team from Calera, while Jamal Miles represented Pelham.

In his senior season at Calera, receiver Farrington totaled 848 yards and nine touchdowns on 48 receptions in the passing game, while he also returned four kicks for a touchdown this season to lead the Eagles to the playoffs for the second year in a row.

Joining Farrington on the list, Banks-Mason finished his senior season as a linebacker for the Eagles with more than 100 solo tackles. Banks-Mason totaled 103 solo tackles and an additional 34 assists. He also finished second in Shelby County with 25 tackles for loss and had six sacks with three interceptions.

During one of Pelham’s historic 2022 season, Miles was a crucial part of the Panther’s first-round playoff win since 2006. The defensive back finished his senior season with 63 tackles, three tackles for loss and four interceptions.

The Helena Huskies and Briarwood Lions also had a player named to the 6A honorable mentions with senior receiver Hunter Hale and junior defensive back Grey Reebals both earning a spot.

Hale totaled 752 yards and six touchdowns receiving for Helena during his senior season. He was one of the most sure-handed targets in Shelby County and returned two kicks for a touchdown.

Briarwood’s Reebals totaled 87 tackles his junior season, while he also added six tackles for loss, three sacks, five pass breakups and two blocked kicks at the nickel position.

The Montevallo Bulldogs had one player earn a spot on the Class 4A All-State honorable mention list.

Defensive line Charlie Adams finished his junior season at Montevallo with 25 solo tackles, 40 assisted tackles, 19 tackles for loss and six sacks with 26 quarterback hurries.

The Vincent Yellow Jackets had one player earn a spot on the Class 2A first team and one player be recognized on the Class 2A second team for their performance after a truly historic season.

Zach Wright earned his spot on the Class 2A first team after his performance for Vincent in his senior season. The Linebacker totaled 126 solo tackles and 41 assists. Wright tacked on 17 tackles for loss and 10 sacks.

Defensive line Easton Fields represented the Yellow Jackets on the Class 2A second team. Fields totaled 62 tackles this season, including 12 for a loss and eight sacks. He also finished with a pick-six, a scoop-and-score and two blocked punts. 

Blake Allums, Tray Youngblood and Rykelus Robertson were all recognized from Vincent in the Class 2A All-State honorable mention list.

Allums totaled 1,705 yards in his senior season, in addition to his seven interceptions for the Yellow Jackets.

Youngblood was a force to be reckoned with for the Yellow Jackets during his senior season. Youngblood led Vincent with 734 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns on offense, while on the defensive end, he totaled 83 tackles and three interceptions on defense. Youngblood also had a pick-six, a kickoff return for a touchdown and a punt return for a touchdown.
