Duron passed for 2,968 yards, completing 201 of 286 passes with 32 touchdowns in the regular season. Riley had 99 tackles, 16 tackles for loss, two sacks and one interception that he returned for a TD.
Curtis has five players on the all-state offense, including junior wide receiver Malachi Dupre, senior offensive linemen Anthony Taylor and Brandon Godfrey, and senior running back Sherman Badie.
Evangel adds senior wide receiver Trent Taylor, who was the Eagles' MVP in the championship game, senior offensive lineman Josh Thomas, and Duron is also on the offensive team.
Senior receiver Raheem Falkins from Carver, senior offensive lineman Wade Wheat from Springfield, junior offensive lineman Garrett Brumfield and sophomore running back Nick Brossette from University High, senior running back Jermaine Antoine from Loreauville, senior place kicker John Shelton from Winnfield, and sophomore athlete Jabiari Tyler from Isadore Newman round out the offense.
