Bolt threw for a district-leading 1,535 yards on the season, which still stands sixth in 1A. He was one of the Rebels' five first-team all-district selections, including senior linebacker Brady Billerbeck.
Rebel head coach John Olson was named co-District Coach of the Year with George Ashman of Woodward-Granger, the district champion.
BCLUW (2-7) had one first-team all-district selection in senior running back Cole Thompson, who finished fourth in the district with 898 rushing yards.
For Gladbrook-Reinbeck (8-2), Billerbeck was second in the district in tackles with 132 total stops. He also had two interceptions and six fumble recoveries, which is tied for tops in the state.
