Wichita Trinity and Medicine Lodge split the season series in the Central Plains League, so it is only fitting that the two teams split the lead of the All-CPL First-Team with four selections each.
Trinity placed pitcher Josh Merrill, catcher Kodie Fewin, first baseman Andrew Newlin and outfielder David Warnky on the first-team. Medicine Lodge was represented by pitcher Zach Larkin, shortstop Bryan Hellman, utility player Jake Beecher and designated hitter Brock Traffas.
Bluestem and Independent both qualified for the Class 3A state playoffs and each were honored with two selections on the First-Team.
