90th List: A Siena Heights
History Lesson
It was one of my most daunting tasks as a
small-town sports editor. At the end of each
high school sports season, I had to sift through
statistics, coaches’ recommendations and the
occasional parental phone call to choose our
newspaper’s all-area team.
Basically, I had mixed feelings about the whole
concept. On one hand, these “all-star” teams
were always one of the most anticipated sections
our paper produced. To see your name on this
list was probably the high point for many of
these athletes, whose sports careers often ended
at high school graduation.
