As part of a longstanding tradition in Lebanon County, coaches from the six high schools gather at the end of each year to vote for the All-County Team. Here is the 2024 edition of those who received recognition for their tremendous effort this season.
Cedar Crest stands out with the highest number of honorees, boasting seventeen players named to the First or Second Team. This recognition is well-deserved, as the Falcons finished the season with an 8-4 record and clinched their first playoff victory in twenty-seven years.
In addition to the recognition of Cedar Crest athletes, Coach Nick Lambros was honored as the Lebanon County Coach of the Year by his fellow coaches.
You can find the full list of selections below, along with a breakdown by school towards the bottom of this article.
