<p>The State Tournament was definitely one to remember. It was so much fun watching the wide variety of players with various skillsets throughout the week. I wanted to make a post highlighting some of my favorite players throughout the week and similar to how the tournament has all-tournament teams, I wanted to make an All-Star Roster for each class. We will be starting off with the 5A class. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Eastvold has been such an important part to the Trojans success not only at the state tournament, but all season long. The senior racked up 81 assists at the state tournament as well as 3 aces and 17 digs. Throughout the season she has managed to get 951 assists. Eastvold also managed to get 41 kills, 40 blocks, and 26 aces throughout the season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1046923' first='Kellen' last='Roush'] was probably one of my favorites (if not my favorite) setter to watch throughout the tournament. The sophomore was able to stand out not only from her sets, but from her various ways she was able to contribute and score. Throughout the state tournament she managed to get 97 assists, 31 digs, 6 blocks, 5 kills, and 5 aces (within 2 matches). On the season she racked up 908 assists, 44 kills, 232 digs, 33 blocks, and 34 aces. She is another underclassmen that I am incredible excited to watch over the next few seasons.</p>
