CEDAR FALLS — The 2025 Iowa high school football season is officially over.
Seven state champions were crowned between Thursday and Friday: Dowling in Class 5A, Xavier in 4A, Nevada in 3A, Kuemper Catholic in 2A, West Lyon in 1A, MMCRU in A, and Bishop Garrigan at the 8-player level.
In each of those games, several players stood out, but we picked one star from each winning team’s lineup. Some selections are obvious, but others give a nod to a player who might not get recognized often.
