Kevin Ah-Hi, Montana State

RB, 5-11, 200, Coeur d’Alene

Ah-Hi broke the school’s career rushing record with 3,155 yards. As a senior, he rushed for 1,621 on 190 carries (8.5 yards per carry) despite missing a game because of a sprained knee. He was recruited to play linebacker. He was named the Inland Empire League’s most valuable player and was selected to the All-North Idaho first team.

Adam Anderson, Idaho

Safety, 5-11, 200, Riverside

Anderson battled an ankle injury to rush for 1,024 yards and 10 touchdowns as a senior, but the Vandals expect him to play in their defensive backfield, where he played only in passing situations for the Rams. He was twice named a Great Northern League second-team running back and was the first-team kick returner this season. His twin brother, Aaron, a defensive lineman, will walk on at Idaho.

Chris Delport, Northern Colorado

WR/CB, 6-1, 185, Lake City

A two-way, two-year starter, Delport led LC with 23 receptions for 545 yards last fall as the Timberwolves (9-2) advanced to the 5A state semifinals. He holds the school record for interceptions in a season (seven) and career (nine). He was named to the 5A All-Idaho first team. He was first-team All-North Idaho.

Ashton Gant, Eastern Washington

WR/KR, 5-9, 160, Pullman

He was the Greyhounds’ big-play guy in their undefeated state-championship season, as 10 of Gant’s 13 touchdowns went for 35 or more yards. He also returned a kick 85 yards for a touchdown in the state championship, using the athleticism that netted him four medals at the State 2A track championships. He was first-team both ways in the GNL and an honorable mention all-state receiver.

Ethen Robinson, Eastern Washington

RB, 5-10, 180, Lewis and Clark

Robinson rushed for 2,355 in three years for the Tigers, second on the school’s all-time list. Earned first-team All-Greater Spokane League honors his junior year after gaining 1,156 yards and scoring 17 touchdowns. He followed that up with 1,070 rushing yards (second in the league) and 10 touchdowns as a senior and was again named to the All-GSL first team.

J.C. Sherritt, Eastern Washington

FB, 5-10, 205, Pullman

For two years, Sherritt made the GNL’s all-league teams both ways, including being named the defensive MVP this last season and the Seattle Times 2A player of the year. He’s one of the most physical players around, known for his solid hits, but he had enough speed to score four touchdowns of 50 or more yards this year. He’ll likely play offense for the Eagles, as he ran for 1,138 yards and 20 touchdowns this season.

Erik Stoll, Idaho State

FS/TE, 6-1, 205, Sandpoint

After missing his junior year with a broken leg, Stoll bounced back to lead Sandpoint (6-5) to the 4A state semifinals. A two-way starter, he had 142 tackles and three interceptions to go with 16 catches for 285 yards and five touchdowns. Stoll, who carries a 3.9 GPA, received the Jim Barber Back of the Year award as part of the Ray Flaherty Scholar/Athlete honors. He was selected to the 4A All-Idaho first team. He also was the Inland Empire League’s defensive most valuable player and was first team All-North Idaho.
