Dylan James Selected to All-State Team

After a record setting season, Dylan James was honored with his selection to the Iowa Newspaper Association's (INA) All-State Team.  Dylan was named third team wide receiver after finishing 4th in the state in number of receptions.  His 51 catch season put him 8 catches behind the 3A state leader from the runner-up Bischop-Heelan team.  Dylan played in four less games.  His numbers broke the old school record of 44 catches held by Matt Burds in 2001, the Bobcat's state championship season.  Dylan is the second Western Dubuque Bobcat in the last two football seasons to be selected to the all-state team.  Last year, Logan Pitz was awarded INA All-State honors as a cornerback.  Logan is currently playing football at Wartburg College.  Congratulations to Dylan and the rest of his team for this honor.  It takes a whole team for one player to break a record.  Great job guys!
