Humboldt, Iowa — The Class 3A District 2 All-District teams were announced yesterday and Humboldt saw several of their key players get honors on the list.
Starting first with offense:
- Junior WR Jamison Heinz
- Heinz caught 30 passes for a team-high 348 yards and three touchdowns. He also added 284 yards on the ground and three more scores, while accounting for four return touchdowns and 163 passing yards. A swiss army knife in every sense of the phrase.
- Senior RB Tyler Vitzhum
- Tyler accounted for over 820 yards of total offense and three touchdowns averaging 4.3 yards per clip. Vitzhum was the engine that drove Humboldt’s offense, coming just shy of a 1,000 total yard season.
- Senior OT Owen Terwilliger
- Terwilliger was a stalwart at left tackle this season for Humboldt, protecting the quarterback’s blindside. He picked up right where he left off last season.

- Junior LB Matt Miller
