The second segment of our 2013-14 all-state teams for girls basketball features the best for each CIF division, except that we have chosen not to do the Open Division separately. CIF Open Division champ Long Beach Poly and runner-up Salesian of Richmond both have three players on the Division I and Division IV all-state teams.

Note: We’ll have an inside look at this year’s girls basketball all-state team posted after all of the teams are chosen, including names of other players who just missed earning a spot on these honor squads. That post plus more exclusive lists and record updates for girls basketball throughout the summer are for Gold Members only. To sign up for a Gold Club membership, CLICK HERE.
