The State's All-Area teams are chosen by Midlands coaches. Each coach nominates a team (players from Midlands schools only) and submits them to The State. The players with the most votes are placed on the team. In the event of a tie, season statistics and postseason honors are considered in the tie-breaking process. Members of The State's sports department reserve the right to break ties. The same process is used in choosing players of the year. Next Week: All-Area Girls Soccer.

Interesting that three of the four Players of the Year are goalkeepers.

Kudos to The State for taking the time to research and identify only 11 players (by position) for each team.
I believe it makes the honor more significant. Tough team to make.
Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.

Blythewood was Co-Champions of their region and they only get one player? How does AC Flora get 2 finishing 3rd in their region and having a losing record???

Because it's the individual player voted on, not pro-rated by how the school he played for finished. Therefore, it should represent the better talent.

its kind of like a kick in the face, your post sounds like your saying Blythewood had no talent to have a 17-6-1 season and make it to the third round of play-offs.

This makes my blood boil! Flora scored 3 goals against these AAA teams and allowed 18 (that's an AVG of 0.5-3 per game): Chapin (0-2), BC (0-4), Dreher (1-2, 0-3), and BWood (0-4, 2-3). They don't deserve anyone on the team much less 2 players! BWood should've had at lest 2 guys make the team.

No, no, never intended to slight any school. Just saying that coaches voted on players and schools didn't automatically get slots for the all-area team.
Some newspapers even offer 2nd team all-area listings as a way to get more players celebrated.
Never meant to offend.
