Here are my "top 15" CWOSSA basketball players from the 2009-10 season. As a usual disclaimer, I don't have the opportunity to see everyone equally......but I have attempted to include players from each region in CWOSSA, at least as honourable mentions.
The breakdown is as follows:
(5) First Team "All-CWOSSAbasketball.com" selections (one CWOSSAbasketball.com player of the year)
(5) Second Team "All-CWOSSAbasketball.com" selections
(5) Third Team "All-CWOSSAbasketball.com" selections
(10) Honourable Mention "All-CWOSSAbasketball.com" selections
With that being said, let's get right to it.
