Despite a 2-8 season, a few Wildcats played well enough to earn All-District accolades in 2016. However, for the first time in team history, no Cy Woods player was a first-team selection; four Wildcats were second-team selections, and Luis Reyes was an Honorable Mention.

Congratulations to Brock, Cody, Myles, Jack, and Luis for earning All-District honors. For Luis, Cody, and Myles, they get to leave Cy Woods with positive recognition for their performances on the football field. Jack was primed for a breakout in 2016, and he delivered by recording over 1,000 all-purpose yards on the season.
This should also be the first accolade that Brock Gunderson earns in what should be a long and prosperous football career as he looks to not only follow in his brother Cole's footsteps, but to leave his own impression on Cy Woods football.
Finally, congratulations to the Wildcats who were Academic All-District players. In addition, Brennan, Trent, and Sam were 2nd-team Academic All-State selections. Sometimes... it's not all about football. They put in their work on the field and off it, as well.
