Congrats to our four boys all-state basketball selections

Not bad, considering.

That's my take on the just-released Pennsylvania all-state basketball selections that were just released by the Associated Press.

In 4A, Morning Call player of the year Greg Bobal from Emmaus and Pocono Mountain West's Quindell Brice were selected.

In 3A, Muhammad Ali Abdur-Rahkman of Central Catholic, was chosen to the second team. Muhammad was a first-team choice last year as a freshman, and is now 2-for-2 in all-state selections.

And in 2A, Salisbury's Lloyd Irons was named to the third team.

I participated on the panel and was pleased to see four local kids get represented, especially considering we had just two teams -- Easton and Central Catholic -- win state playoff games and only one (Easton) reach the state quarterfinals.

As we know, the southeast corner of the state is where most of the power is in PIAA basketball, but we still offer some quality kids who work hard and deserve to be recognized.
