Delone Catholic's Austin Noel was named to the 2012 Pennsylvania Sports Writers Class A All-State Football Team on Wednesday.
Noel, a 6-foot, 1-inch, 210-pound senior, was selected at linebacker.
He was the undisputed leader of the Squires' defense, leading the team with 153 tackles (11.8 per game). He finished with 94 solo stops and 59 assisted tackles. He also led the team with 61/2 sacks.
Noel was at his best in Delone's 28-13 victory over Steel-High in the District 3-A championship game, when he finished with 13 tackles, including two sacks.
Noel was also Delone's leading receiver from his tight end slot, catching 23 passes for 483 yards, an average of 21 yards a catch. He scored five touchdowns.
The Squires finished the season at 9-4.
Both the Class AA and Class A all-state teams were released Wednesday. The Class AAAA and Class AAA teams will be released on Thursday.
The selection of the all-state teams are overseen by the sportswriters who cover high school football around the commonwealth. Players were nominated in all four classifications, then a statewide ballot was sent out affording all writers an opportunity to cast votes.
Wyomissing linebacker Alex Anzalone was named the Class AA player of the year, while Clairton's Tyler Boyd repeated as the Class A player of the year.
Anzalone, a 6-3, 225-pound Notre Dame recruit, recovered from a miserable first half in the Class AA title game last week against Aliquippa to help guide a group of 20 experienced seniors to the school's first state championship -- and the first for a team from Berks County.
Anzalone is regarded as one of the top five outside linebacker recruits in the 2013 high school recruiting class. He had a monster two-way season for the undefeated Spartans, with nearly 1,500 rushing yards and 30-plus touchdowns to go along with more than 100 tackles on defense.
He wasn't the only Wyomissing player to make the team as one of the top 33 players in the state at the Class AA level. Anzalone was joined by kicker Jonah Bowman, who drilled a state-championship-record 52-yard field goal in the 17-14 victory over Aliquippa last week; along with offensive lineman Ben Wertz and defensive lineman Jeriko Reyes.
Veteran Spartans head coach Bob Wolfrum was the overwhelming choice as the Class AA Coach of the Year. The Wyomissing coach since 1986, Wolfrum has 243 victories with the Spartans and one state championship to go along with six District 3 titles.
Anzalone was one of eight Class AA players making a repeat appearance. Hickory's DeShawn Coleman, Imhotep Charter's David Williams, South Fayette's Zach Challingsworth, Mount Carmel's Eric Joraskie, Wilkes-Barre GAR's Shakir Soto, Penn Cambria's Mack Behe and Lewisburg's Brandon Smith each made the squad for the second year in a row.
Boyd, meanwhile, totaled nearly 2,500 total yards and 40-plus touchdowns as a running back, wide receiver and occasional quarterback for the four-time state champion Bears.
Clairton shut out Dunmore 20-0 for the Class A title. Dunmore coach Jack Henzes, a 46-year veteran with 371 career victories, was tabbed as the Class A Coach of the Year.
Boyd, Port Allegany quarterback Matt Bodamer, Penns Manor athlete Danny Ferens and Clarion linebacker T.J. Armstrong all repeated as Class A selections.
