It’s only going to be one more week until the first posts of the Cal-Hi Sports All-State All-Decade Teams are completed. Read below to see how anyone can input their opinions for this project and get a general schedule of when all of these teams are going to be released.
Football: The first all-decade all-state posts will begin next weekend (Sunday night) and will start a streak of six straight weeks in which we’ll go over all of the historical all-decade all-state teams. First up will be the 1950s followed by separate posts for the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. The final all-decade all-state team (for the 2010s) will be completed not long after the current 2019 season is done in late December.
Boys Basketball: Look for lead analyst Ronnie Flores and all of our picks for the best of the 2010s to be done in November, not long after the 2019-20 preseason state rankings are released. We’ve already discussed player of the decade, coach of the decade, game of the decade and team of the decade.
Girls Basketball: The very next week after the boys awards and all-decade teams are posted we will switch to the girls and there will be the same numbers and same honors handed out. Longtime lead analyst Harold Abend already has his first team figured out.
Baseball: We are going to have the best of the best in the state for the last 10 years in baseball ready to go during the upcoming World Series. It will run hand-in-hand with our annual World Series Alumni report.
Softball: This is scheduled to be the first of the all-decade all-state teams to be released. If all goes well, that will be as early as the week of Oct. 1-4 but may be the following week of Oct. 8-11.
Look for Twitter polls and robust comments to go with each of the all-state all-decade teams.
