The South Dakota State Tournament field is set, and with the postseason spotlight turning toward the biggest stage, it's the perfect time to recognize the players who made their mark during the regular season. Before the ball tips at state, we're taking a moment to talk Metro All-Conference hoops.
The Metro Conference was loaded with talent this year, and the All-Conference Team features a group of ballers who consistently produced, competed, and helped drive their teams throughout the season. These players filled up the stat sheet, made winning plays, and stood out night after night.
In this article, we're highlighting those selections with quick player comments and notes on what makes each athlete special. Check out the Metro All-Conference honorees and breakdowns below. Best swishes!
-PG, tactician, trigger man, creator, mobile athlete, shoots/scores/assists/defends well
Evaluations are normally subscriber-only but when an athlete subscribes, theirs becomes free for all readers.

-long & rangy wing, great at getting to FT-line, efficient finisher, O-board beast
Evaluations are normally subscriber-only but when an athlete subscribes, theirs becomes free for all readers.
