Awards: CHSCA All-State

The Connecticut High School Coaches Association released its All-State teams on Wednesday. It doesn't look like there was a whole lot of rhyme or reason to some of the selection of these teams (for example, there is no quarterback on the Class M team and only three offensive linemen on the overall First Team). Here are the teams, originally posted by the Hartford Courant (as far as we know, these are complete).
