Local administrators and athletic directors have started to send out their spring sports all-star lists–starting with the Eastern Pennsylvania Conferences<\/a> All-Softball team members.<\/span><\/p>\n

And this time, it\u2019s personal.<\/span><\/p>\n

I have three very good friends whose daughters play high school softball in the EPC.\u00a0 I\u2019m very proud to say that all three of those families have representatives on this year\u2019s all-star lists…one isn\u2019t even a senior yet!<\/span><\/p>\n

With that being said (and I\u2019m not going to show you any bias by telling you who they are), here\u2019s the list of ALL of this spring’s All-EPC softball team award winners.\u00a0 We also look forward to the other sports representatives sending out their end-of-the-season and end-of-the-year sports honors and achievements (email me at <\/span>chris.michael@rcn.net<\/span><\/a>) so that we can salute you here at the \u201cRCN SportsTalk Shop.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

2021 EPC All Stars – Lehigh, Northampton, Monroe Divisions<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019d also like to salute the All-EPC singles tennis players from this spring featuring the teams in the RCN TV viewing area (we are still waiting to receive the \u201cdoubles tennis\u201d all-stars from the official league chair).<\/span><\/p>\n
