2013 TSWA All-State Baseball Nominations

 2013 TSWA All-State Basebale Nominations  —  Coaches are asked to nominate players for the Texas Sports Writers Association All-State Baseball Team as soon as possible when their seasons are complete.

Three pitchers, a first baseman, a second baseman, a shortstop, a third baseman, a catcher, three outfielders and a designated player will be selected. There will also be a second and third team.

If a player played more than one position then please nominate for the position you feel the player best deserves recognition. If a player played several positions and excelled at all of them, you might want to consider nominating for utility player.

You can nominate up to five players (Note: a player nominated at pitcher and shortstop counts as two positions. Also if you have a great pitcher, but he played elsewhere, then nominate him at two positions).

Fax nominations to Robert Cessna, (979) 776-8923 or e-mail at robert.cessna@theeagle.com. Please try to avoid calling me if possible as it would be way too much if every coach tried to call.

Please inlcude:
Player(s)
Any available stats.
Honors
Grade (sophmore, junior, senior)
School
Classification of school (1A, 2A, etc.)
Team Record

If you are in the playoffs please fax in now and then re-fax and update stats ASAP when the season is over. Every RBI, pitching and team victory helps.

The deadline for nominations is the Monday after the UIL State Baseball Tournament.

I am dealing with hundreds of coaches, trying to cover spring sports in our area as well, so life gets hectic. You can contact me via fax or e-mail (I will confirm e-mail as I go through them). If you are worried, fax it and e-mail. I’ve found that works out. I’d rather have it twice than not at all. I have a big box on my desk, and everyone knows to put faxes/e-mails in it.

Attention Coaches, Parents, Players and Fans! ...

When the 2013 All-State softball and baseball teams are released and you look for a player that didn't make one of the teams -- please do us a favor before sending an irate E-mail listing all the reasons why your player was deserving to be on one of these teams.

We can't select players if they were never nominated. Coaches and/or sports writers are the only ones who can nominate a player(s). If they are not nominated - our writers can't vote on someone who is not on the ballot. So check with your coach FIRST to see if the player was even nominated.

There is no way a single sports writer, who compiles the ballots, can know every player across the state. Coaches are the life-line in helping us select players. If coaches choose not to participate in submitting their players -- then we can't do anything beyond that.
