NOTE: We recognize any All State Team we have completed for each classification. If we have omitted anyone selected to an All State Team please inform us once you have verified the source of the team. It is imperative we know who made the selection before it can be included. If you were selected by any organization for an All State Team and we do not have it listed, please submit the entire team for the appropriate classification. This is the only method to make additions to the information AHSFHS.org documents for All State Teams.
You may also make additions and corrections in the All State Forum.
  
Some records may be incomplete. We have chosen to publish this information in hopes our visitors will participate in assisting us to complete every school.
