Good afternoon everyone. This is Coach V from Columbus posting the following info...
This year the Florida Coaches Athletic Association (FACA) wanted to start naming an All-State 1st and 2nd Team for boys' volleyball...a big, positive step for our sport, after asking for this to be done for a couple years now.
Results were tallied and sent over to Mr. Crews, Executive Director, of FACA to be finalized. He will be posting the lists on the FACA website sometime next week. We are also hoping to send this out the various newspapers around the state to get the list published there too.
As far as how the process occurred:
Coaches with experience and/or good results in boys' volleyball were asked to submit names for selection...for all positions. The list below doesn't have a Lib/DS because there weren't enough nomination votes to name one.
There was a very low turnout response from the Broward and Palm Beach area coaches, so players from that area didn't get many votes, nor did the other coaches know about their skill/stats for the season. It doesn't mean that there aren't good players there, just that there weren't enough votes from there to get them up in the player rankings/selection. Hope that doesn't occur again next year.
Remember, this is a first year thing, so it wasn't a perfect process or such, but is a move in the right direction for our sport. The list is a collection of nominations/votes from a respected group of coaches, so please don't come on here bashing the selections or the process. We will be in discussion with FACA on making adjustments to the way the process will occur in future years, hopefully improving every year we have this done.
There were 32 total nominations/votes. The 12 players named below were those with the most amount of nominations/votes.
These are the inagural 2013 All-State Boys' Volleyball 1st and 2nd Teams:
First Team
OH - CHRISTIAN MALIAS - BISHOP MOORE - SR
OH - STANLEY KIERSNOWSKI - LYMAN - JR
OH - CASIMIR KIERSNOWSKI - LAKE MARY - SR
OPP - JORDAN HAAK - LAKE MARY - SR
S - NOAH ROMAN - LYMAN - JR
MB/OH - JOHN PAUL WILL - COLUMBUS - SR
Second Team
OH/S - KYLE DAGOSTINO - TAMPA BERKELEY PREP - JR
OH - ZACH RYNNING - LYMAN - JR
OH - RICARDO REGUERA - SOUTHWEST MIAMI - JR
OH - JUAN DE LA HOZ - MIAMI SUNSET - SR
MB - CEDRIC HANKERSON - CORAL REEF - SR
OPP/OH - KORY SCHULTZ - MIAMI PALMETTO - SR
Congratulations and we hope to build on this positive step for our sport! Keep working hard to construct and maintain a positive and productive image for our growing sport.
