Hats off to all these young ladies and their team mates for a season well played. Where is Allison West? She is the hardest playing player in the district. If she isn't 1st team all-district, then there is no 1st team all-district! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoops fan2 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 i knew this would happen -- we do not agree with all the choices it is a tough district ----- several teams could have realistically had five or six players on the first team --- and they know who they are --- but we can vent -- i won't name names - i don't like doing that -- but there are other girls in the district who put up much, much better numbers than the girls whose names are not on there -- yet their teammates are on there - some on the list did not play as much as other teammates whose names are not on the list ---- for various reasons -- nor did they start all season, as other girls with better stats -- again,whose names are not on the list and i often think there is a lean towards "seniors" in some of the questionable spots on the three team all district accolades -- awards are nice -- but those whose names are not on here, you know who you are -- and you know if you had a good season ---- i say keep up the good work, for yourself above all -- and then for your team ! still -- i wonder how the coaches vote? do they just sit in a room and talk? is is blind vote by ballot? do they chat and say "if you vote for my girl then i'll vote for your girl" -- you get the picture just wondering if you all have an insight congrats to all !!! it's tourney time !! good luck to all there as well !!

King21 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 if your implying that ferris or davis should have been mvp, well then good try, heres why i think ferris didnt get it, 1. matthews is better overall ballplayer 2. when your 6'8" shouldnt you be better than the other 6' tall girls in the state? 3. when your 6'8" you should be expected to lead the state in scoring and be on up there in blocks and rebounds when you play 6' tall girls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itisgooood Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I for one have never felt that all tourney, all conference, and the like should be awarded to individual players participating in team sports. In football, it takes all 11 players on both sides of the ball playing together to be successful. In basketball, it takes all 5 members working hard on both ends of the court to do well. Being successful and doing well does not necessarily mean a W at the end of the game. This may sound corny to some but, It's walking off the field, court, etc. knowing that, "We have given it our very best!" Sure, it's great to win, but as in the game of life, we all have to deal with the elation of big wins, but also the heartbreak of tough losses. I certainly realize that there are players that have more ability than others on a team, but the most prolific scorer must have a teammate pass them the ball in order to score(in most cases), and the best defensive player must have teammates that know how to play help-side or weak-side coverage. It's takes a special individual having the desire, the determination, and the discipline to want to be a part of a team and not as concerned about what "me" can do, but more focused on what "we" can do. I will close by wishing all teams memorable and injury free play in the tournaments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
