FINAL Girls BB All-State Nominations
We will begin choosing the 38th annual Cal-Hi Sports All-State girls basketball teams in the next few days. This is the final list of names we’ll be going through, but last-minute nominations can still be sent and accepted. We’ll have our super elite first team, second team and third team of 10 players each and...
FINAL All-State Boys BB Nominees
Barring any last-minute nominations coming in (which is still possible and we still accept them), this is the final list of names we’ll be working off of to choose the 39th annual Cal-Hi Sports All-State boys basketball teams. We’ll have our super elite first team, second team and third team of 10 players each and...
Girls BB All-State Nominations (Part 1)
We’ve been doing all-state girls basketball teams for California almost as long as the boys (37 years compared to 38) and it’s now time to get going for No. 38. The first step is to post a list of nominees from every CIF section in the state. We’ll post a second updated list — which […]
Boys BB All-State Nominations (Part 1)
For the 39th straight year since the first Cal-Hi Sports All-State Team for boys hoops was selected by founder Nelson Tennis, it’s time to get started toward choosing all of this year’s team. The way we do it is to begin by posting a list of nominees from every CIF section in the state. We’ll […]
State Player of Year Finalists
We decided for this year that there will be six finalists for this season’s Mr. Basketball State Player of the Year honor and that there will be eight for Ms. Basketball State Player of the Year. Winners will be announced near the end of next week. We have also included any McDonald’s All-American Game updates […]
All-State FB: Most Inspirational
We’ve added this special category in recent seasons based on all of the all-state football nominations we receive and this year’s choice to be the Most Inspirational Player on the 2016 All-State football teams is Tyler Stow of Scotts Valley. The Santa Cruz County standout set league passing records this season, but did it with […]
All-State Football: First Team
The 38th annual Cal-Hi Sports All-State Football Teams are topped by these 30 players, selected regardless of school size or year in school. Five players have earned rare back-to-back all-state first team honors, led by Mr. Football State Player of the Year Wyatt Davis (St. John Bosco) and national No. 1 recruit Najee Harris (Antioch). […]
All-State FB: 2nd & 3rd Teams
Here’s where to go for the 30 players who have been handed out honors for second team overall plus the next 60 who are on third team. Note that all third team honors are for seniors only and large schools only since we have had separate medium and small schools all-state teams for more than...
All-State Football: Medium Schools
How to get numerous area player of the year running backs onto these teams was a major challenge, which is why we went with four on the first team and basically put two others onto multi-purpose. Calabasas, which lost to Madison of San Diego (considered large schools) in the CIF Division 2-AA SoCal final, leads […]
All-State Football: Small Schools
CIF state championship teams McClymonds, Rancho Christian and St. Patrick/St. Vincent all get a pair of players onto one of our two elite all-state squads, but Sutter of the CIF Northern Section tops all with three. It’s harder to determine which schools are “small” in the age of competitive equity, but it still depends on […]
