Smith signed with the University of Nebraska in December

SBLive's 2023 high school football All-America team was announced on Friday afternoon and Liberty North senior Keelan Smith earned the recognition as the top tight end.

The Eagles' standout wide receiver/tight end, who helped Liberty North win its first state championship, signed with Nebraska.

From the story: 

Smith had a dominant senior season, finishing with 74 catches for 1,268 yards and 17 touchdowns. He surpassed 200 receiving yards in a game twice, the latter a 220-yard, three-touchdown dominant Missouri Class 6 state semifinal performance in a 28-27 win over Rockhurst. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound receiver/tight end then caught two touchdown passes in Liberty North’s state title win over Christian Brothers. He early-enrolled at Nebraska after signing in December.
