Over 100 ESTers, Including 55 Summer Leaguers, Earn NYSSWA All-State Honors

In a year that has been completely unlike any other in our lives, at least one thing has remained consistent - the release of the NYSSWA all-state selections effectively puts a bow on the high school basketball season. These all-state teams were released on Wednesday evening, and there was a great deal of representation from EST event participants. In all, 108 athletes that were in various 2019 EST events, including 55 that saw time in the 2019 EST summer league, received all-state honors. On top of that, an additional 32 that didn't play in any 2019 events but played in prior years garnered all-state selections as well, bringing the total number up to 140.

They were headlined by a few selections of note:

- One Player of the Year, as Cambridge 2021 Sophie Phillips earned the honor in Class C;
- one Co-POY, as South Jefferson 2022 Jackie Piddock shared honors in Class B;
- nine 1st team selections - 12 if including participants of prior years, including the whole Class C squad - led by large school selections Dolly Cairns for Class AA Saratoga Springs & Kelsey Wood for Class A Averill Park
- and 23 overall that were either selected as player of the year or earned mention as a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd team member - 32 if including prior year participants.

After another highly successful year at Cambridge, Sophie Phillips earned NYSSWA Class C State Player of the Year honors.

The entire list, separated by class, is below. Names in bold saw time in the 2019 EST summer league; italicized names didn't play in last year's summer league, but they were in at least one of the four one-day showcase/combine events.

Congrats to all receiving the honor of all-state selection!
