Three Montgomery County area players were selected to the Northeast Media all-district basketball team.

They were senior Isaac Seabaugh and junior Logan Pursifull of Wellsville-Middletown in Class 1 boys and sophomore Malia Rodgers of Montgomery County in Class 3 girls. All three players earned all-district honors for the first time.

Seabaugh earned first team honors after leading the Tigers in scoring (13.5 points per game), rebounding (6.7 rebounds per game) and three-pointers (27). He also was named on the Missouri Basketball Coaches Association Class 1 all-state team.

Pursifull was named on the second team after averaging 10 points and six rebounds per game. He was second on the team in both categories.

Seabaugh and Pursifull helped the Tigers finish 20-8 and place fourth in the Class 1 state tournament.

Rodgers received first-team notice after averaging 15 points and five assists per game. She also helped the MCHS girls basketball team finish 20-8 and capture Eastern Missouri Conference and District 7 championships.

W-M boys basketball coach Steve Lasman earned Class 1 coach of the year honors, making it the second year in a row he received the award. Last year, he was voted coach of the year in Class 2.
