  1. Did you post your criteria somewhere on making your all sophomore team? I get this is your list but don’t see how you wouldn’t have a tie at 120 when hunter Gilmore got 2nd only losing to a 4 time state finalist. While only having one less loss then Mr. Kunz.

    1. Hi Philip, the deciding factor at 120 was that Kunz beat McCracken head to head and Gilmore lost to McCracken.
