Graduated All-State Players:
       The Rebels lost a ton of talent to graduation off the 2023 squad. Replacing these players will be a key to another successful season. Lowndes Academy lost AISA All-State  offensive lineman Pierson Hill to graduation. He was named to the first team last season. Also graduating were teammates linebacker Cooper Dansby, defensive back Scott Stinson, athlete Clayton Hussey, athlete Kasen Dismukes and linebacker Jase Howard.

Coach Moye has won three state championships at Lowndes Academy, the last coming in 2023.

Season Outlook:
