New Palestine High School senior offensive lineman Ian Moore was selected this week to be a participant in the 2024 All-American Bowl.
Moore is the No. 2 rated offensive tackle in the nation and has committed to play at Ohio State.
The 24th edition of the All-American Bowl is to be played Jan. 6, 2024 at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas. The game will be televised live on NBC and Peacock.
“We’re really proud of him,” New Palestine head football coach Kyle Ralph said. “This one (for Ian) is the big, big one, and a phenomenal honor for him.
“From where he started when he got here to where he is at now is such an incredible success story. He’s a talented young man, but he has worked unbelievably hard to get to where he is. I am proud of his hard work and humble nature.”
