Most realize that all-league teams are decided by a meeting of that league's coaches. Each coach makes a case for his or her athletes and more weight is given to the league's better teams. A vote settles any arguments. We hold no loyalties, get no royalties and coin flips do not enter into it. Yell at us if you have a problem with any of our teams.
Plenty do, and with very good arguments.
The divisional teams are chosen by a panel of coaches and broken into separate divisions. The All-CIF team, which is one comprehensive team for each team sport, is chosen by a panel of the county's media. It's the highest honor within the county an athlete can receive. The Hall of Champions invites prep writers from the North County Times, San Diego Union-Tribune and The Daily Californian in El Cajon to its offices three times a year to discuss and vote on the teams. This summer, the selection process for All-CIF will be reviewed to try and find better balanced representation from the entire county in part because areas like the South Bay and San Diego city are underrepresented.
