I realize there are numerous players from numerous schools to select from. Roswell had 6 players selected where Artesia only had 4. David Hammond DB (7 pics this year 1 pic 6)Philip Finley Rascon (6 pics this year great production in special teams) DB Josiah Rodriguez LB (3 pic 6s, 72 tackles(2nd behind Wesson, most solo tackles on team, 1 scoop n score, 4 caused fumbles, 1 punt return for TD)had very productive years where at least one of the 3 should have been selected. Finley Rascon is a 3 year starter at DB with multiple interceptions.Go figure its not a perfect world and thats how the world turns. Happy we beat down Roswell and Lynn, Im sure he medled with this just like he’s good buddies with Bradley from Mayfield (Bradley sent that lb purposely 4 or 5 times to chop block and piss Ricky #66 off. David, Josiah and Philip will be at the game supporting their frias they are part of the same click. It’s bullshit to me(Roswell s always been crooked crybabies

I agree with those 3 and I would throw in our Center (Omar), also a 3 year starter. Definitely can’t argue the ones in the list, but if Roswell got 6, we should have 7. Not to mention, I’m sure their QB would have made the list too if not injured. Everyone is acting like this was big upset this weekend- I’ve got news for you, the upset was on October 13th.

I agree 100%. This defense was as good as I’ve ever seen. You could make a very strong argument they were the best in the state regardless of classification, especially when it mattered most. Those 3 kids were huge contributors to that. No way Roswell’s center deserves to be an all star over Omar. 3 year starter with 2 rings and a runner up.. if that’s not an all star idk what is. Roswells 6 (would be 7) to our 4 makes zero sense to me.

Well... I say this every year. And once again I will explain it AGAIN. You have to be rated #1 in your district in that position to be nominated. IF you are rated #2 in your district the ONLY WAY to be selected is IF and ONLY IF the #1 in that position in your district gets selected. A #2 can not be selected over a #1 from ANY district UNTIL the #1 from the #2's district get selected. Kapish

Also, coaches will not nominate a kid if he is not going to be committed to play in the game. In previous years there have been a handful of players that no showed the all star game.

To add to that, I was in the defensive selection meeting this past Sunday and this format is a lot tougher to get in than in previous years. You have ONLY a certain number of spots per position. For example: You can only select 12 players in the secondary, 6 per team. That includes corners and safeties together. Then they will separate the selected players as equally as possible.

AND... No longer are you competing with players from the south, you are now competing with the ENTIRE STATE! along with 6A, 5A and 4A teams. No longer are you just trying to pick from 6A and 5A, you now have to select from 4A. Both teams have a max roster of 40 players, 20 offense and 20 defense.

Thank you for explaining, I didn’t know any of that, I haven’t seen your post before. This still doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me considering Roswell and Artesia are 2 of the top 4 teams in the state, both will tell you the secondary is the strength of their team, and 7 of the 8 starters between the 2 teams are Seniors. Yet only 1 of those 7 makes the cut. But besides that, that format is terrible. It gives way to much value on the Regular season and next to none on the playoffs (what actually matters). Especially in a district like Artesia plays in. For example, Roswell is a great regular season team, but this is 2 years in a row that same team has folded when it matters most. That should never be rewarded in an all star game just because they win the district 6 weeks ago.

@bdc Do you know the format for the way All-State works?

Athletes are chosen by through a process which includes nominations by head coaches, ranking of nominations through a coach's ballot, and a final selection committee chosen by the NMHSCA Board of Directors.

BDC...........you guys have a very difficult job, and no matter how well you do your job some people are going to be pissed. But I for one appreciate what you do. Keep up the good work and don't worry about the nay-sayers. Some of us get it.
