What We’re Looking For: It’s only too late to send in a nomination once the “publish” button is pushed on one of our all-state posts. You can send a nomination with each athlete’s position, year in school, significant statistics. Make sure to list the school, too. Comparing a player not on the board yet to one who already is listed also can be very important toward eventual selection. Limit each nomination to one page please. Send to: markjtennis@gmail.com or call, text (209) 608-1317 (that is the cell for editor Mark Tennis).
Format: All-state teams will be selected separately for juniors & sophomores, medium schools and small schools. A freshman all-state watch list also will be compiled. A final top 30 overall team then will be done with each of those 30 players featured with a writeup. Second team and third team for large schools and seniors only also will be done. There is a separate category for what we call multi-purpose, which is where we often highlight those baseball players who are top pitchers and top hitters.
Our all-state patch for the 2025 softball season will be similar to the one for previous years through our partners from BillyTees.com.
Congratulations to all of the following all-state nominees currently on our board for the various 2025 all-state softball teams:
Isai Gutierrez compiled the first list of nominees from Northern California. He started an internship at CalHiSports.com in January of 2025 and is a student at Modesto Junior College. He graduated in 2024 from Sierra High in Manteca.
