All Conference Selections

This is our take on the awards. We did follow the Atlantic 10's archaic nominating system, which rewards the top players at each position instead of the top overall players. In a more ideal world, we would have included more shortstops on the first team to more accurately reflect the impact shortstops had on the league this year. There was a lot of talent in the A10 this year and these were not easy decisions to make by any means. Even if players do not end up receiving all conference accolades, they should hold their heads up high for great seasons.
