Grade 11 Andrew Mwangi (6'4"/G-F/Resurrection CSS) was named as the MVP of the D8 basketball league on Thursday.
Mwangi created all sorts of matchup problems in the D8 league, and saved his best performance for last with a 23 point outburst in the championship game. With a couple of years left at Resurrection, keep an eye out for this kid.
Meanwhile, other first team selections alongside Mwangi included 5th year forward Matt Stocco of Resurrection, grade 12 guard Josh Loehle of Monsignor Doyle, and grade 11 guards Isaac Lance and Alex Thompson from St. Mary's.
Here's a complete rundown of the selections. With regards to the grade 12s, I am not 100% on some of the grade 12s (i.e. if they are 5th years) so please comment as appropriate.
All six teams were required to have at least one selection on either the first or second team.
1st Team All-Stars
Andrew Mwangi, Resurrection (Grade 11, SF) - MVP
Matt Stocco, Resurrection (5th Year, PF)
Alex Thompson, St. Mary's (Grade 11, SG)
Isaac Lance, St. Mary's (Grade 11, PG)
Josh Loehle, Monsignor Doyle (Grade 12, PG)
2nd Team All-Stars
Tyler Schneider, Resurrection (Grade 11, PG)
Ben Bankazo, St. Mary's (Grade 12, SG)
Tyson Lavigne, St. David (Grade 12, PF)
Daniel Hummel, St. David (Grade 12, SG)
Shane Teet-Corriveau, Monsignor Doyle (5th Year, C)
Derrick Strickland, St. Benedict (Grade 12, SG)
Josh Klassen, Rockway (Grade 11, SG)
The D8 all-stars will play D10 on Wednesday, March 24th at the University of Guelph (8pm). One injury note: Matt Stocco is still feeling the effects of a concussion suffered against CCVI in CWOSSA (that kept him out of the Bluevale game) and may not play.

Great to see Doyle with a 1st team and a 2nd team All Star. Both these players helped the Mustangs become the most improved team in D8 and in AAA CWOSSA this year. With the other key starters expected to return Doyle will be in the mix again next year. Coach Kamzol
