Sports in Kansas has released its 2018 All-State Softball Team. Selections were finalized by Sports in Kansas with input from several media outlets in Kansas. Input was also taken from coaches and athletic director nomination forms sent in to Sports in Kansas following the 2018 season, not prior. The form was available on our website for over a month and several notifications were sent out online from Sports in Kansas. This is not the Coaches Association Team, this is from Sports in Kansas only as we continue to expand in more softball coverage. While the selection process is never perfect because you're not going to have 100% cooperation, our main goal is to recognize as many deserving individuals as we can. The more info provided to us throughout the season, the better of it makes our coverage.

2018 Sports in Kansas 2-1A Coach of the Year
Brian Henry, Wabaunsee
Henry led the Chargers to the 2018 2-1A state title in dominating fashion at the state tournament. The Chargers (20-6) outscored their three opponents, 37-6, over the course of three state tournament games. They knocked off Republic County, 11-3, in the quarterfinal, before also beating Bluestem, 11-3, in the semifinal, then went on to capture the 2-1A crown, 15-0, over defending state champion Chase County in the title game. Wabaunsee record may have been a bit deceiving entering as they play in one of the best 3A leagues in Kansas, Mid-East League, that features teams like Silver Lake, St. Mary’s and Rossville. The Chargers hit .372 as a team with 20 home runs in 2018. Wabaunsee had 61 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs this season.
