501 Football Team 2025: Isaiah Bowman – Conway

Conway Wampus Cats senior offensive lineman Isaiah Bowman is a dominant force on the field, known for his relentless effort and physical play. Having played football for a decade, he was drawn to the sport by “watching it as a kid.”

“Isaiah’s on-field qualities include his physicality, effort, athleticism and coachability,” Conway Offensive Line Coach Gavin De Los Santos said. “Last season, Isaiah started every game and was one of, if not the best, players on the field. He only lost a handful of reps the entire season.” The production earned Bowman an All-State selection. 

“I expect Isaiah to continue to improve and dominate this year,” De Los Santos said. “He’s one of the more dominant players I’ve coached.”

For his senior year, Bowman’s personal goals include 100 pancake blocks and a first-team All-State selection. “As a team, we can’t be complacent,” he said. “We have to keep getting better every game, which is something we have struggled with in the past.”

“Off the field, Isaiah is just as hard working,” De Los Santos said. “He works a job in the summer for the school. He is inclusive of everyone and dedicated to school and being a great friend to his peers. He is a great ambassador for the special needs community at school and is active with Special Olympics (competes with the Unified basketball team).” Bowman also competes in track and plans to play football at the collegiate level at Arkansas State, holding eight Division I offers.
