Boys all-city team features elite NYC talent

Making it onto the list of top boys basketball players in New York City isn't easy. It is also often a sign of even greater things to come. So the following list of players - the top six of whom are our Player of the Year candidates - should be considered the best of the best.

All-City girls are in class of their own

You know where you can find better girls basketball than in New York City? We don't either. So making this list of the best of the best is no easy task. While each of the following players is in an elite class, only the top six are candidates for Player of the Year.

Boys Coach of the Year candidates

It's not easy being a high school basketball coach in New York City, and it's certainly not easy winning here, either. But these six coaches got the most out of their players. Which one will walk away with the top honor?

Girls Coach of the Year candidates

When it comes to girls basketball, it doesn't get anymore competitive than it does in NYC. That's why it takes a great leader to turn a team into a contender. So each of these six coaches earned their spot on this list.

Baseball may be the sport people think of first when the Bronx is mentioned, but these kids proved that the borough is rich with basketball talent also.

Think it's hard finding parking in Manhattan? Try making the borough's all-star team if you're not a member of Murry Bergtraum. Five members of that team - including coach Ed Grezinsky - made the cut.

Taylor Baggs Island all-star nod

Baggs averaged 15.2 ppg, helping the Mavericks win their third straight CHSAA Archdiocesan title and first in Class AA in 25 years. The senior ended her career with 1,475 points and won the Warren Jacques award as the Island's top girls player.
