I was cruising the Deseret News website today at work and found a link to every Utah all-state high school basketball team since 1981, a project the D-News has been working on for the past few months. Here's the link:

It's fun to go through and find the old Weber State players. Some of them were pretty freakin' awesome ballers in high school, including my namesake, Jimmy DeGraffenried, who averaged 29.6 points and 13 rebounds per game for Payson High back in 1990. Amazing numbers now, but it seems like the scoring averages were way higher back in the early 90's and late 80's. You can also identify the guys who went on to play against Weber for lesser schools like BYU, Utah, and Utah State. I even learned that a cousin of mine was honorable mention all-state a few years ago. It's amazing, some of the names you can find on there...current high school coaches in the area, guys who went on to play at other colleges and pro teams...check it out.
