The following are my personal choices for the 2021-22 All-Benton County Boys and Girls basketball teams. These types of polls are always subjective to various opinions. However, they do give us the opportunity to honor and brag on our local athletes.
 
If I missed someone then I am truly sorry.
 
I also want to say that we appreciate all of the kids that showed up to practice everyday and gave 100% with their chosen sport.
 
Now for the best of the best.

The Cole Camp Bluebirds left the school on Saturday at 4:30 to make the long trip to Columbia to play 15-16 Duchense at Battle High School in the MSHSAA Quarterfinals.
 
Duchense's record is a bit deceiving as they played much bigger schools along the way. They were very athletic and played hard-nosed defense. In the end, they came out on top, 51-42 in a game much closer than the final score showed.
