The ESSC doesn't indicate whether selections were unanimous. Canulli is the only Benet player who made the list last season. I think the picks from area teams are pretty fair, singling out the best players on each squad. However, I can't understand how Neuqua's Marsalli wasn't a unanimous selection in the UEC. The junior shortstop finished with 11 homers, was sharp in the field and a team leader. Oh well, at least she's on the list. What do you think of the picks? Was anyone left off?
You are right about Jenna Marsalli from Neuqua, it should have been unanimous, most home runs, high in all major categories, average, runs, rbi's....
Erin Grahm from central is a really good player, same batting average as Summer McKenzie from Neuqua who catches for Colleen from Neuqua, caught every game but the 2 East Aurora games. I am a little prejudice.
