BSN Denver is proud to present the 2018 Six Zero Strength All-Colorado High School Football Team and Honors. This team is selected annually by  Matt McChesney, a former Colorado high school standout himself, who went on to play at the University of Colorado and enjoyed a six-year career in the NFL. Matt works tirelessly creating this list of deserving names, watching games in person and countless hours of film.

Congratulations to this year’s team and award winners!

The Concrete Charlie Award

 

***

The Concrete Charlie Award, named after NFL legend Chuck Bednarik, is given each year to the top players in the state who excel on both sides of the ball. Bednarik, who starred both center and linebacker for the Philadelphia Eagles, was the last full-time, two-way player in the NFL. During his time in the NFL, McChesney also played on both sides of the ball, working on the offensive and defensive line.
