Title: All Conference, All State Selections
Post by: rebmomma on February 20, 2012, 10:21:18 pm
I know this is probably a silly question, but being new to Arkansas, I was wondering how a student athlete is selected for all conference or all state?

Thanks. I wasn't sure if the coaches voted, or if it was based off of seniority, stats, leadership sportsmanship, etc..  :)

It generally depends on the conference.

Some leagues nominate names and vote.

Most do it by conference rankings. Conference champs 2-3 players, Runner-ups 1-2 players, 3rd-5th place 1 player, 6th-8th usually gets left out (every now and then if they have a big-time player, one spot will be allowed in).

All-state is critical to make all-star teams.
