Lake Arthur High School (Lake Arthur, LA) LB Wyatt Monceaux has committed to play in the 2026 Gridiron Football All-American Bowl Game, which will be played on Wednesday, December 30th at Louisiana Christian University in Pineville, Louisiana.
At 5’11, 185 pounds, Monceaux is a tackling machine that led the Tigers in tackles the last two seasons. Despite a shortened season that included two cancelled games, he still managed to put up 72 tackles after having 92 tackles the season before. His high football IQ and commitment to the game was displayed earlier last season as Monceaux was our Gridiron Football Player of Week 5 when he had a staggering 22 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 TFLs, and an interception in a 47-8 win over Rosepine High School.
He later would not only receive his national player of the week letterman jacket patch at one of our earlier camps at St. Louis Catholic High School, but he was one of the camp’s top performers and received his invite to play at the Gridiron Football All-American Bowl Game at the event.
“They really had a lot of talent at the camp, but I knew if I worked for it, I think I would achieve that goal of getting the invite to play in the bowl game.”

With a 3.7 GPA in the classroom and having a 4.31 second shuttle on the field, what sets Wyatt Monceaux apart is his drive for excellence in all facets. He has already achieved many accolades including not only being a Gridiron Football National Player of the Week, but being named All-District twice, All-Parish, and All-State as well. Still, his goals are to only improve and get better. Monceaux’s goals are to get over 100 tackles, 10 sacks, and two interceptions. Right now, he is at 185, but he has been putting a lot of work in the gym to bulk up to 200 pounds, which he is currently approaching.
His quickness and ability to dissect plays as well as shed off of tacklers to get to the ball carrier have impressed many colleges with Monceaux receiving offers from Grinnell College and Eureka College. Entering his senior season with two college offers, Wyatt Monceaux is looking forward to showing college coaches what he can do not only at this year’s bowl game, but throughout the 2026 season.
“Colleges should recruit me because my grades are at a 3.7 GPA. I am always determined to get better. If you tell me something, I am going to get it done and I am going to show up.”
