congrats to all those making the list. There are a few suspect choices I personally wouldn't have made, but it looks good nonetheless

Being a goalie and seeing a lot of goalies... Teddy Potter was the best goalie in the league this year and didn't get a mention... the kid was sick and could have played for any A team. This leads me to believe everyone voted on purely statistics and didn't consider any team that you didn't play. The statistics are wrong for every team, I don't care how well you trained some girl to do them. I know especially the SLU game the girls were taught by our stat girls during the game their last game of the season.
Congrats to all of the guys who were recognized.

Maybe we should reinstitute crossover so we have a chance to see everyone play even if we have to play mediocre to bad competition after driving twelve hours. (sarcasm)
Im not complaining or anything I just think you have to give credit where credit is due. All-Conference means nothing unless everyone has a chance to see everyone. I don't at all feel slighted personally, I played like crap against a few teams so this is definitely not whining.
We cry for legitimacy and then can't back it up. We are not legit.

Congrats to those who made it. If you think other people should have been on this selection, then there should be definitive facts or or at least a clear point why one is better than the other. The problem is, voting based on crossover provides subjective opinions., and therefore can be argued alot longer than stats can. Giving the sub division setup, these are the best players within their subdivision. SOS is taken into consideration as well to help differentiate the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd team selections. It's not perfect, but it's the coaches majority vote based on facts and mutual understanding.

It could be worse, we could have the BCS run this polling too....

Congrats again to all of those making the All Conference List.

.....there's two O's in Goose boys........

congratulations to everyone who received honors, especially to all of my buddies at Dordt. It was nice to see a few more schools represented on the list this year rather then a couple dominating the whole thing. Good luck to the teams headed to nationals and I look forward to being back next season!
