The 2019 high school football season was a memorable one for Katy ISD.

District 19-6A, an all-Katy league, had three teams—Katy High, Tompkins and Taylor— reach the regional semifinals for the first time since 2008. Taylor made it to the state semifinals, the district’s third representative in the last four years. All four of Katy ISD’s teams that made the playoffs out of 19-6A won at least one playoff game. Three won two.

Katy High won an 11th consecutive undefeated championship. Mayde Creek made the playoffs for the first time since 2008 and enjoyed its finest year since 1997.

Tompkins finished second in district play for the second straight season. Mayde Creek finished third. Taylor finished fourth.

Talent was in abundance, and it was evident via this year’s District 19-6A all-district teams, which was voted upon by the district’s seven head coaches and is predicated upon performances during district play.

Tompkins junior quarterback Jalen Milroe was named the district’s Most Valuable Player. Katy High senior running back Ron Hoff and Mayde Creek junior running back Julius Loughridge shared Co-Offensive Player of the Year honors.

Morton Ranch senior defensive lineman Brandon Brown was a unanimous selection as Defensive Player of the Year. Tompkins junior Marquis Shoulders was named Special Teams Player of the Year.

Katy High sophomore linebacker Ty Kana and Taylor junior quarterback J. Jensen III shared Co-Newcomer of the Year.

Mayde Creek’s Mike Rabe was named Coach of the Year.
