The state champion Box Elder Bears placed three girls on the Northern C all-state girls basketball team, which was released Tuesday.
Junior Lillian Gopher, senior Cecilia Vielle and sophomore Joelnell Momberg earned all-state honors for Box Elder, which won the program’s first State C girls championship since 1998. Bears coach Joel Rosette was named District 9C’s coach of the year, and Maddie Wolf Chief was a second-team all-conference choice.
Winnett-Grass Range, which defeated Box Elder for the Northern C divisional title and lost to the Bears in the state championship, had three players earn all-state recognition: Sydney Browning, Piper Johnson and Taylor Stahl. The Rams also placed Brynn Jolma on the District 8C all-conference second team.
Heart Butte and Belt represented the Northern C at the boys state tournament. Warriors Riley Spoonhunter and Shylon Spoonhunter and Husky Keagan Stroope were named to the all-state team.
