GIRLS BASKETBALL

Other than Player of the Year Courtney Warley, here is the rest of the Daily Local News 2016-17 All-Area Girls Basketball team:

FIRST TEAM DEE DEE IRWIN, COATESVILLE

Senior guard, a first team All Ches-Mont National Division selection, was an exciting all-around player (18 ppg, 3 spg, 3 apg, 5 rpg). Scored 30 points in the Ches-Mont championship semifinal, and finished her Red Raider career with 1,025 points.

EMMA BERTRANDO, WEST CHESTER HENDERSON

A two-time first team All-Ches-Mont National Division selection, the senior guard was the Warriors’ Most Valuable Player for the second year in a row. Featured a wide range of talents (13 ppg, 8 rpg, 3 spg) in leading Henderson to an impressive regularseason campaign.

KATIE MAYOCK, CONESTOGA

Junior 6-foot-4 center, a first team All-Central League selection (and runnerup in the league MVP voting), was a dominating presence inside for the Pioneers’ strong squad this winter, averaging 15 points and 11 rebounds per game for the season.

MADDIE SHANAHAN, UNIONVILLE

A repeat first team All-Ches-Mont American Division pick (received the second-most votes of all American Divsion players), the 6-foot-1 senior point guard had a wide range of skills (10.5 ppg, 9.6 rpg, 1.8 spg, 1.3 bpg, made 61.6% of her free throws) and her versatility allowed her to play a variety of positions.

MIRANDA PORRETTA, OXFORD

Sophomore guard averaged 14 ppg and is a repeat Daily Local News All-Area first team selection. Her all-around talents keyed the Hornets to another strong campaign, and she received first team All-Ches-Mont American Division honors for the second year in a row.
