Each high school football season, the Indianapolis Colts, the Indiana High School Athletic Association, and the Indiana Football Coaches Association announce the Colts/IFCA Academic All-Star Team, presented by Forté Sports Medicine and Orthopedics, which honors state high school football players who excel in the classroom as well as on the field.

Now in its 26th year, nominations for the award are collected from coaches across the state each season. The IFCA then selects the top student-athletes to receive the recognition. Congratulations to our 24 Academic All-Stars for 2024!

This year's team includes 24 seniors – 11 offensive players, 11 defensive players and two special teams players. All are ranked in the top five of their class, and 23 are either class valedictorian or salutatorian.

Please reach out to YouthFootball@Colts.com with any questions.
