The ballots to select the 2015-16 girls lacrosse, boys lacrosse, girls soccer and baseball all-state have been emailed to coaches.
They now have a week to select the teams, which are presented by CHSAANow.com, ColoradoPreps.com and MaxPreps.
The all-state teams for so-called individual sports — in the spring, those are girls tennis, boys swim, track, and girls golf — are selected based upon performance at the state meets. A number of those teams have been released, and will continue to be this week.
The process for selecting the all-state teams in so-called team sports is as follows:
- Every player who was a first-team all-league selection is put on a ballot.
- Head coaches are emailed the ballot, and they vote on their all-state picks. Only head coaches are permitted to vote, and each head coach only gets one vote.
- The players with the most votes will be placed on the all-state teams.
- There are separate voting categories for coaches to vote on player of the year, and coach of the year, in each classification.
Head coaches who didn’t receive the all-state basketball ballot in their email should email rcasey@chsaa.org as soon as possible.
