Storylines have filled the Center State Conference’s baseball season. With Adirondack advancing to states in Binghamton on June 10 after beating Lansing 2-1 Saturday, more developments are expected to come in.

But before then, the CSC announced their 2022 All-Stars Thursday morning.

In Division I, Colin White, the do-it-all junior for Adirondack was named Player of the Year. Chase Regan, from Little Falls, came in second. Junior Brett Sanford was the other Wildcat All-Star. Three others received honorable mentions. Adirondack finished the regular season 8-11 but have embarked on a magical run in the postseason.

Westmoreland, which finished the regular season undefeated, dominated Division II. Senior Caleb Miller won Player of the Year, with three others nabbing All-Star selections. The Bulldogs saw their historic season come to a shocking end Tuesday night with a loss to Adirondack in the Class C Section Final.

Finally, in Division III, it was an even split between New York Mills and Oriskany for All-Stars, each with four, but Marauders senior Logan Copperwheat earned Player of the Year, just barely edging out Morrisville-Eaton’s Nick Brady. The Warriors, which eliminated New York Mills and Oriskany on their way to regionals, were rewarded with three All-Stars.

Here’s the full list of All-star selections for all CSC divisions:
