HighSchoolOT has released its third-annual all-state softball team, which features the best players across all state associations.

There are 25 players each on the first, second, and third team, each with minimum requirements of at least two catchers, eight infielders, four outfielders, seven pitchers/two-way players plus an additional four spots on each team, allowing more players of one of these positions to make team (ex: three catchers, or nine pitchers, etc.). There are also 50 honorable mention spots — double that of one of the first three teams — that have no position requirements.

In all, there were 35 players making the team for a second time: Hickory Ridge's Anna Dew and Grace Bechtol; Southern Nash's Anna Dickerson; Charlotte Christian's Anna Hinde; Falls Lake Academy's Ashbee Standridge and Madison Primm; Northwest Guilford's Bel Varadi; Anson County's Camryn Martin; Camden County's Carlyn Tanis; Wayne Christian's Ella Fox; Washington's Emma Orr; Union Academy's Gracie Hollingsworth; Southern Alamance's Greta Hessenthaler; Warren County's Jamari Moss; Chatham Central's Jaylee Williams; Panther Creek's Jolyna Lamar and Layla Lamar; East Columbus' Karli Godwin; Draughn's Katie Cozort; Fuquay-Varina's Kendall Smith; Jesse Carson's Landry Stewart; Cape Fear's Lex Glemaker; West Stanly's Lily Huneycutt and Teagan Ritchie; Richlands' Mackenzie Goin; South Stokes' Madison Wilson; South Stanly's Mattie Poulos; C.B. Aycock's McKenzie Millard; Fred T. Foard's Riley Vogel; Davie County's Sydney Dirks; East Lincoln's Taniyah Thomas; South Mecklenburg's Taylor Barlow; Franklin's Tori Ensley; Topsail's Zoey Vincent; and Robbinsville's Zoie Shuler.

Four players became three-time selections: East Lincoln's Betsy Eatmon, Providence Grove's Emma Mazzarone, South Caldwell's Kadie Becker, and Western Alamance's Taylor Apple.

Godwin, Cozort, Apple, Mazzarone and Barlow are the only two-time first teamers.

Each player is listed below with their stats and college commitments (if applicable). Positions were determined by what was listed on the N.C. Softball Coaches Association's website or other sites.

Pitchers who made the team due to their bat and arm are noted with "TWP" for "two-way player" next to their name. Pitchers who made the team only due to their hitting are listed as designated players ("DP").
