The Missouri Basketball Coaches Association released their all-state academic teams last week and a number of Ozarks players were selected. 11 players were selected (two more than last year) on the girls side representing 11 different teams. Three of those came from the SCA conference, the most of any area conference. Elizabeth Chappell of Cabool, Mandy Riddle of Mt. View-Liberty, and Rachel Sirois of Salem.
On the boys side, Jeff Williams’ Joplin Eagles had three players of the 17 selected (also 2 more than last year). Devin St. Clair, Matt McCreary, and Phillip Davis. Having two players selected were Hermitage (Ben Salmon and Brent Collins) and Plato (Landon and Logan Justice).
As always, a huge congratulations to these kids, their parents and coaches for keeping the “student” in student athlete. And a special tip of the hat to those players who were selected for both the all-state and all-state academic teams. This year we have two, both on the girls side. Bridget Hanafin of Clever and Casey Carroll of Kickapoo.
