Vote: Who was the top offensive lineman in 2024 Oregon high school football?

The inaugural Carlson Award honors the top offensive lineman statewide
It's rare for a lineman to win offensive player of the year honors, but Central Catholic's Zac Stascausky did exactly that for the Mt. Hood Conference.

In the early part of the Roaring Twenties, Jules “Zuck” Carlson played for The Dalles before starring at Oregon State and winning two NFL titles (including the first championship in 1933) under George Halas with the Chicago Bears. 

He was one of the first star offensive linemen to come through the Oregon high school ranks, and today, SBLive Oregon and High School on SI honor his legacy by selecting 10 of the top offensive linemen as finalists for the Carlson Award as the state’s best this season.

All-state teams: Class 6A | Class 5A | Class 4A

We know several teams had multiple linemen who could qualify, but to spread the wealth, we limited each school to one finalist.

Vote on who you think should be named Oregon’s Carlson Award winner.

CARLSON AWARD FINALISTS

Brody Borrevik, Sheldon, senior 

His future might be on the other side of the ball, but Borrevik earned second-team 6A all-state offense honors for a 6A Open semifinalist.

Soren Gaston, Jesuit, senior

The latest standout from the Crusaders’ vaunted Franchise offensive line made the 6A all-state second team.

Henderson received 5A Special District 2 offensive lineman of the year honors and first-team all-state recognition.

Suiliasi Laulaupeealu, Sherwood, senior

Wilson Medina ran for more than 2,000 yards thanks in part to the work of his road-grading 6A all-state first-team tackle.

Trae Mackaravitz, Sprague, senior 

The Olympians’ run to the 6A Open quarterfinals was paved by an offensive line led by this 6A second-team all-state selection.

Noah Uecker, Lake Oswego, senior

The Lakers had three 6A first-team selections opening holes for offensive player of the year LaMarcus Bell, but their three-year starter at center earned our nod.
