The good news just keeps on coming for South Callaway.

Nearly two weeks after winning the Class 2 state title, the Bulldogs put three players on the Missouri High School Baseball Coaches Association all-state team.

South Callaway won its first team state championship in any sport with a 4-3 victory May 31 in Springfield against Valle Catholic.

Freshman Cory Hanger and senior Hunter Leeper were named to the first team, Hanger as an outfielder and Leeper at the DH/utility spot. Senior catcher Konrad Kemper picked up second-team honors.

Six other area players made the Class 2 team.
