2010 CILA Summer League - All League Teams

Having played in or reffed every CILA Summer League game, I decided to share my picks for the 2010 All League Teams. I'm sure that others will have their own opinions and I encourage you to share them below. These players represented the top level of competition on a regular basis in their position. These players stood out among their teammates every week, regardless of the outcome.

League MVP

Tanner McDougal, Lighnting Wear (Valley)
McDougal played at above average levels in every position on the field. Primarily playing LSM, McDougal was a capable defender, midfielder, and attack man. He also filled in at goal on several occasions, including the league championship game. McDougal exhibited the qualities of the league's best all-around player all season long.
