Six area soccer players named to North and South All-Star rosters

The Mississippi Association of Coaches (MAC) announced its North and South All-Star rosters earlier this week in boys and girls soccer. The Baptist Rehab Services All-Star Soccer Games will be played on Saturday, February 17, 2018. The girls game will begin at 12:30 p.m., followed by the boys game at 2:30 p.m. Both games will be played at Clinton High School.

A total of six Jones County players were named to the rosters. Three of the six – all Northeast Jones players – were named on the North girls and boys rosters. Due to redistricting in the offseason, Region 5-4A, which includes Northeast Jones, was moved to the North side of MHSAA Class 4A in boys and girls soccer.
