DD in All-Met every year and it's based on district/regional accolades + how deep your team went + coaches sending some snippets of how well you did and what you meant to the team. From there the Wapo team likely determine who've they thought would've been in the mix from the beginning. We've had them reach out before for questions, so they are well attuned to the areas sports, all of 'em. It's something, not the only thing your player could add to their resume for colleges.

Ok. Sounds like coaches nominate at least. How are the levels of teams formed?

My son said his coach said at one point the coaches all sit in a room and debate.

It’s a money grab!

Scouts for All Met? It’s coaches.

I think it must be all of the above, in addition to some politics.
