Can someone explain to me how the State Champions Wando only have 2 players make All State and how the Gatorade Player of the Year does not make it on the list, but yet Irmo gets 4 players on. I have completely lost faith in our voting process.



I agree that Wando should have had better representation while 3 from Mann and 4 from Irmo was a little much. As for Gatorade POY, unlike all state which is selected by coaches who have seen the players (even though some may be biased), that player is chosen by some random group based on stats and recommendations from the players own coach. Based on that alone its validity is questionable.
