2018 PAFootballNews.com Class 5A Coach’s Select All-State Team
Tagged under: All-Stars, News
Billy Splain | January 2, 2019
Coach of the Year: Dave Hahn, Manheim Central
PAFootballNews.com presents the inaugural Coach’s Select All-State Football Teams. We asked every team’s head coach to submit nominations for their class and others if they wished. Over 700 players were nominated. Once compiled, the ballots went back out and nearly 200 coaches voted on the 2018 All State teams. We tried to incorporate an original offense/defense scheme for each team with a first team and a second team. Some adjustments were necessary due to the amount of nominations at some positions. Any ties were broken by stats and film review by our staff.
