How is it that all-trinity league running back Cory Thomson did not make the team when two other running backs from San Clemente and Mater Dei(didnt even make trinity league 2nd team ) with fewer yards made it.

Roberto, that is a good question. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how the teams are selected. I believe each school or league nominates senior players, then either a committee selects the teams or the North and South coaches select their teams from the nominees. Also, some players opt out of the game on their own, and some colleges forbid their committed players from participating in all-star games out of feat of injury. Anybody know any more than that? If so, help us out.
