Storey, Prahl and Howell sophomore Nick Hoorn were chosen to the all-region team. Hoorn made all-region as a utility player after hitting .370 and going 8-0 on the mound.

The county hasn't had a first-team all-state baseball selection since 2019 when Brighton's Zach Hopman and Howell's Luke Russo not only made the Division 1 team, but the all-division Dream Team.
