VERY interesting list. Apparantly Matt Maynard, arguably Belfry's finest talent, didn't even make honarable mention. Odd to say the least.

 

Congrats to everyone who made it.

There will be "Special Recognition" choices at each position, above 1st Team. I assume Maynard earned one of those spots.

 

Any news on All - 2A District 7?

Who was the district POY?

Mat was POY from 2AA district 8,And coach Haywood was COY.I appoligize for not posting it earlier.

How does Aaron Chapman for Belfry not make this team. At least honorable mention. I thought he was the best player on Belfry's team.

Aaron deserves mention on this team, as well as Justin Gooslin.

 

Aaron definitely had the best night against you guys, no question. I can see why you'd think that. He is a great player on both sides of the ball and deserves any kudos he receives, but it would be hard to call him the best player on the team.

Just goes to show how inconsistent these things can be. A. Chapman and J. Gooslin were Belfry's 2 ALL-STATE members, yet they are left off this team..

 

Oh well.
