Is the 5th best player on JL Mann girls better than the best player that was on a team eliminated in the 1st or 2nd round?
These type of awards, including the All Star games, are hard to pick because it impossible for the committee to compare a boy or girl from the different regions of the state.
It's not a team award but often turns into that.
The committee is often made up of a group of coaches from the best teams so their players tend to get selected.
A player, one of the top 2 or 3 players I coached against this year, wasn't selected as an All-State player but was selected as a Clash of the Carolina's All star. He's one of the 18 best senior players in the state but he's not one of the best 18 AAAA players in the state?
