I am surprised that not one of Shiloh players didn't make the team and I am also surprised that Ronnigan girl Lakota-Edmore didn't make it either with her scoring her 2000 point and good run she had in tournaments getting to state. I also think a lot media looked at region senior athletes also for source of their choice. I can think of several other girls that could have been considered for the team that I have seen play this year. Several of these girls will be back next year so they may still get this honor.
I'm thinking that the fact that they were all some pretty controversial transfers worked against them.
Maybe the voters considered loyalty as a factor.
Plus these girls stats were down from previous years.
I hope the voters didn't base their vote on their feeling of if it was a "legit" transfer. That should be NDHSAA's job. You can't penalize a girl for her family moving. I agree their stats weren't that great, and that is most likely the reason they weren't voted on the team. However, their stats were comparable to a few of the players on the 2nd team.
