No midstate girls’ basketball players made the Class A All-State team, as selected by Pennsylvania sports writers.
State-champ Vincentian Academy produced the big winners:
Junior standout Brenna Wise, who helped the Royals top Old Forge in the state championship game, was named Player of the Year, while Ron Moncrief, who led Vincentian Vincentian back to the PIAA finale for the second year in a row, was named Coach of the Year.
Wise was also a first-team selection for the second year in a row.
