At long last, All-Big East football team released

This gets to be quite old each year - the release of the Big East All-Conference Football Team comes later and later each season.

This year, 17 days after the last Big East team is knocked out of the playoffs and almost 10 days after the state championships have been completed, the area media finally gets a peek at this year's honored high school football players. 

This announcement has been as drawn out as MLB's season-ending awards - Cy Young, MVP, etc.

Despite finishing in last place, Rocky Mount placed four players on the team (Mason Hines
Nah'jerelle Graves, Rodquez Greene, Darryn Lewis), and two Nash County players took the top individual honors, although Wilson Hunt won the league title.
