The Los Angeles City Section, which serves the Los Angeles Unified School District high school athletics, announced its All-City football teams and awards from the 2025 season Monday.

The City Section isn't known for its juggernaut football programs or athletes, but it's arguable the richest high school sports association in America when it comes to all-time athletes that competed in the section many moons ago.

Names like John Elway, Anthony Davis, and Warren Moon come to mind ...

There might not be athletes of that ilk on this list, but being named All-City is an honor, nonetheless.
