Nathan Barnes was one of three Clarinda football players who earned all-state honors from the Iowa Print Sports Writers Association in November.
The IPSWA, with help from the Iowa Football Coaches Association, selected three teams in all six classes and three Cardinals were selected in Class 2A.
Nathan Barnes, a senior at Clarinda High School, Clarinda, Iowa, was named first team kicker.
Barnes made two of his four field goal attempts on the season and 22 of his 28 extra point attempts. His longest field goal came from 41 yards away. He averaged 52.4 yards per kickoff with 41 percent of his kicks ending as touchbacks.
Nathan is the son of Joel Barnes, Westboro, Missouri, and Carrie Karg, Clarinda. He plans to play football at Peru State College on a kicking scholarship.
