MADISON – Marshfield senior defensive back Daulton Varsho was named to the 2013 Wisconsin Football Coaches Association All-State Team, which was released Tuesday.
Varsho was a unanimous first-team selection on the All-Valley Football Association South Division Team at both safety and as a return specialist this season, and was one of nine first-team all-state defensive backs chosen to the all-state first team at the position. He will be signing of a letter of intent to play Division I baseball at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee on Wednesday.
Varsho was one of only two players from the Central Wisconsin area named to the first team, joining Edgar defensive back Blake Lehman.
Among the honorable mention selections was Auburndale senior quarterback Blake Anderson, a first-team all-Marawood Conference South Division choice.
Other honorable mention choices from the area were Edgar defensive end David Kornack and kicker Kaleb Wolf, Wausau West inside linebackers Cole Radloff and Jake Whalen, Marathon’s Ethan Seubert, who was chosen at both running back and outside linebacker, Stevens Point outside linebacker Sean VanHelden, Owen-Withee defensive back Albert Goerlitz and running back Bryce Niemi, and Wausau Newman Catholic receiver Marcus Gabriel.
Appleton Xavier quarterback Matt Ferris was named as the state’s offensive player of the year, and Mukwonago linebacker and University of Wisconsin recruit Dominic Cizauskas was picked as the state defensive player of the year.
The WIAA state football finals will be held Thursday and Friday at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison.
