Not that I have a dog in this fight, but from the girls I have seen play this year, I would have thought that Alli Kern and Regan Porter from Waterford and Ellie Jo Johnson from South Webster should have been shown a little more love. I'm sure there are others that I haven't seen play.

FYI................Caretti has signed with Ohio State.

Goinbroke I got to agree I read in the paper kern leads in steals,rebounds,and blocks averages 11 points a game

First time I saw kern this year was in districts. Imo she is the best player on her team.

I got to agree but Waterford has a great team

The problem for Waterford is a good problem to have. We have a bunch of girls who can score. We kill people in 90% of our games. We dont try to blow people out, so we stop pressing, shooting and sub early. When you put the stats up on a board and people have to vote there isnt much to vote for. But if you have seen the girls its a different story. It would be nice for our girls to get the post season recoginition they deserve, but thats not what they are playing for. And thats why we are where we are. What a TEAM!

Agree completely. Voters tend to look at #'s alone, but if they watched Waterford they'd know how many special players are on that team.
