Delport, Hout, Vick earn top honors
Trio named to All-Idaho first team in high school football
BOISE — Two Lake City Timberwolves and a Post Falls Christian Eagle were named to the first team as the All-Idaho high school football selections were announced Sunday by The Idaho Statesman newspaper.
Lake City senior wide receiver Chris Delport was named to the 5A first team, and teammate Byron Hout, a sophomore, made the first team as a defensive lineman.
Flynn Vick, a senior punter at Post Falls Christian, was named to the 1A first team.
Four Lake City players — running back Kyle Ferebee, offensive lineman Mike Vickhammer, linebacker Ben Widmyer and defensive back Steve Novotny — were named to the second team in 5A, along with Coeur d'Alene defensive back Scott Lind and offensive lineman Brian Oliver.
Post Falls offensive lineman Dusty Mullaley was named to the 4A second team.
Delport, called "a great game breaker" and a "big-play receiver" by Lake City coach Van Troxel, had just 23 receptions, but averaged 23.7 yards per reception. He finished with 545 receiving yards and five touchdowns, along with 160 rushing yards.
Hout had 87 tackles, 5 1/2 sacks, 13 tackles for loss, four blocked punts, five forced fumbles, three recovered fumbles and 12 quarterback hurries. Troxel called him "the best sophomore we've ever had."
Vick averaged 38 yards per punt, and six were downed inside the opponents' 10-yard line.
"Flynn did everything I asked of him," Post Falls Christian coach Kevin Rouse said. "If I asked him to kick away from someone, he did it. When I told him to kick it out of bounds, he would make sure the ball carried far enough to pin the other team."
The All-Idaho teams were compiled by the Statesman following voting by coaches statewide.
Players of the year in each class were Meridian quarterback Jake Burroughs (5A), Bishop Kelly quarterback Cody Hawkins (4A), Weiser running back/linebacker Bryce Svedin (3A), Firth running back/defensive end Jesse Hofhine (2A) and Genesee running back/defensive back Carl Jensen (1A).
Hawkins also was player of the year last year.
