Morehead, a sophomore midfielder who led his team with 11 goals and five assists, outpaced a wide open field for the All-City First Team’s top spot, with five other players garnering first-place votes — Henry Clay’s Tahj Jairam and Keenan Wilson, Lafayette’s Gabe Gatsos, Bryan Station’s Ivan Nkinzo and Paul Laurence Dunbar’s Drew Doza.

Morehead was joined on the First Team by teammate Andrew Dobbs and two players each from 11th Region champion Paul Laurence Dunbar — Doza and Isaac Cano — 42nd District champion Henry Clay — Jairam and Wilson — and Bryan Station — Nkinzo and Xavier Hale — plus Lafayette’s Gatsos, Tates Creek’s Jona Juarez and Frederick Douglass goalkeeper Max Hasler.
