Dietrich senior Kade Shaw earned MVP honors and the state champion Carey Panthers swept the other big honors in the 1A Division 2 Sawtooth West Conference.

Houston Hennefer was voted the conference's Offensive Player of the Year, DJ Parke was the Defensive Player of the Year, and Lane Kirkland was named Coach of the Year, just days after the Panthers completed an undefeated season.

Eleven Panthers were recognized as either first or second-team honorees by Sawtooth West coaches, with five players being selected in two positions. Lighthouse Christian and Murtaugh each had six players honored. None of Murtaugh's selections were seniors. Two were sophomores and one was a freshman.

Richfield senior Justin Wood was the only player in the conference to be selected at three different positions.
