Congrats to all those that made the team. It is always an honor to be named to any All State Team. Especially a big congrats to Mitch Dee of Highlands.


However, I really don't get a poll that gets nominations from coaches. Of course they are going to toot their horn for their players and never or rarely mention a player from another team. Sure you have some great coaches out there that recognized talent and will give players from other teams the props they deserve, but most, not all , hold grudges against those teams because they probably beat the pants off of them.

It is what it is people. There are good players on bad teams. They look great because they are playing against teams that are nothing and they are standouts on their team because their team as a whole is not that great.

Then you have players from teams like Trinity, Bowling Green, Lexington Cathlic, Highlands, Mayfield, Newport Cathlic, and Cov. Cath., to name a few, that are playing good if not great teams and their are many outstanding players on that team. Those are the players that deserve to be mentioned in any and all state polls in my opinion.
