 What is the deal? Why hasn't the All-State soccer team be covered by the newspaper or TV media? I have written LHSAA, they say it is the writers. I have spoken to the writer's rep and they say that the team is selected by the Coaches. I wrote the president of the Coaches Association two weeks ago with no response. I can't wait to read about the all-state bowling team as I am sure they will get coverage before soccer. Does anybody know who to contact?

My school AD didn't know that I even made All-State, much less if there even was an All-State for soccer.

All State is chosen by the Louisiana High School Soccer Coaches Association, not the LHSAA or writers. The All state rosters were released to the media the Monday after the ballots were made public (March 12). I want to say that I remember seeing the All State listings in the The Advocate back in March

Coach,
I remember seeing all metro and all district in the advocate but not all state. I checked the archives and could find no reference to all-state soccer teams. Is there anyway that the information can be resent? I have checked papers in Houma, Shreveport, Monroe, Lafayette and New Orleans and find no mention. Any help would be appreciated. As I am sure you would agree, these kids deserve the attention (not to mention earned it.) Thanks.

All-State selections were finally posted in the Times Picayune on April 10, 2007.
In the "By The Numbers" section where they report prep scores, if you got out a magnifying glass, you were treated to a bare-bones listing of the position, name and school--no article.
I took the same route as soccerjunqie in contacting those groups, each one sending me to another for an unsatisfactory answer. What a shame that these players receive such an honor that no one knows about.
