This year's Player of the Year may look a little familiar. Windward's Jordin Canada is the MaxPreps California Girls State Player of the Year for 2013-14 for the second consecutive season.

Winner of the honor as a junior, Canada had another strong season as a senior, earning Player of the Year honors for the Open Division in the Southern Section, as well as from the Los Angeles Times.

Kelli DiMuro of Chaminade (West Hills) is the state coach of the year after leading her team to the Division II state championship. The Eagles dominated one of the top programs in the state in beating Archbishop Mitty 80-51 for the crown.

The MaxPreps All-State teams are divided into five divisions based on the California state enrollment divisions. Those teams playing in the Open Division of the state tournament were placed in a division based on their enrollment. Those schools that played in the Southern Section Open Division were placed in the division they played in during the state playoffs.



A first, second and third team was chosen for the overall All-State team with 15 players listed as honorable mention (in no particular order).

A first and second team were also chosen for each division. The overall all-state teams included two guards, two forwards and a center. The divisional teams did not necessarily follow that format.

The MVPs for each division include Katie Lou Samuelson of Mater Dei in Division I, Kelli Hayes of Archbishop Mitty in Division II, Sabrina Ionescu of Miramonte in Division III, Canada in Division IV and Marissa Hing of Pinewood in Division V.
