Each squad contains player's pictures and personal stats such as height, weight, and position... however, some players are missing info; if you can help, please do so! If you are able to assist with a
photo, a JPEG or GIF file that is 80x100 pixels would be ideal.
TEAM PLACEMENT
Regarding player and team placement, in some cases there are discrepancies among the different entities that bestow All-State honors; such that, a player was categorized by their highest earned honor. For example, a player may have earned 1st Team honors by one entity but subsequently in another publication was named to the 2nd-Team squad. As well, some players were named as
an All-State player but out of position! Nevertheless, it is only fair to place players in the highest-earned All-State Team in the position they played...after all, which source is really "right"?
