Oh how I have come to hate to see these teams announced. Ours has gotten ridiculous on the the fact that it has become a "here's our best players" team.
There are 66 players who are "worthy" being considered the best of the best.
DL 11
OK 12
LB 10
RB 5
DB 10
WR 9
QB 5
P 2
K 2

These are a joke. Back in my day the sportswriters picked the teams and there was one player for each position on each team, even 3rd team QB was an honor then. Now there are 6RBs, 4QBs 4WRs and 3 linemen, WTF is that??? Check out AP Class AA all OHIO 1978 third team defense www.ohsaa.org/sports/history/FT/78AllOhioTeams.pdf |

Follow along kids, because it's complicated: When they reorganized a few years ago every school got put in a district for scheduling purposes (Mostly the same league that they were in before reorganization) and a conference (Mainly for playoff purposes for sports other than football). In football, we play every district team but not every conference team. Off hand I couldn't name every team in out conference. BUT, We have an All-Conference Team and not an All-District Team. In other words, we vote for honors for kids who we've never seen play. |

Ours isn't too bad actually. Local paper sends out a nomination form to each school then sends out the ballot for each region (what they call our leagues) we meet as a region and vote so all coaches can talk about their kids. Just a first and second team, if there is a 1st team tie then a spot is taken off the second team so if there are 3 1st team RBs then there is only 1 second team RB. And pick a region POY. Most regions meet some don't and just send in votes. Paper then picks an all district team from the 40 or so teams in all classes.
I will say I feel we got ripped off a bit this year in the voting, finished second but didn't place as many as we should have since we played a ton of soph/jr who seemed to not get votes. But I digress....
