    I know for a fact that a back up running back from a local high school was selected to this team. I have no objections to the list of kids that made the team. But I cannot fathom how a RB that lead his team in rushing and helped his team make it to the 3rd round of the playoffs could get over looked. How do you select a kid from a 1 and 9 team over an elite RB from a smaller school that finished 11-2? Of course it does no good to argue the case. What is done is done. Just willing to share the thoughts of many.

    I watched this game on TV last year. It didn’t look like the East all stars Vs The West, It looked more like the Tate All stars Vs the East.

    Jeff, do you not think that there are other great players at these smaller schools? The smaller schools don’t get recognized as much. They have players that to work just as hard and do play their position just as well. And if you’re hung up on this “A” school “B” school thing then they should make an all star game for each division that way it is more fair. I still stand by my former comment.

    so ? do you think that a sub par player from school “A” should make the team over a player from school “B” just because there needs to be more players from school “A”? I think not this is the All Star Game. the best players should play. If they were all from one school they should play.

    Don’t you think they should of picked the boys a little more evenly? There are only 3 from a couple of schools then 6, 8 and 10 from others.

    Very disappointed that Dustin Yuhasz from Northview was not selected for the All Star game.
