Bay Area 75 – Nos. 25-1

The final segment to our three-part countdown of the Bay Area’s Top 75 athletes from 2012-13.

  Welcome to the first annual Bay Area 75 — SportStars’ countdown of the top 75 Bay Area athletes from the 2012-13 school year. 

  This is actually the final of three unveilings of a list that had to be refined several times before we were convinced we had it right. Our staff considered athletes from all nine Bay Area counties who compete in sports which culminate in sanctioned section titles. Those were the only stipulations. 

  When it was over, our list included at least one athlete from each county and had 14 different sports represented. All sports fans know rankings are an opinion, and certainly subjective. They also spark debate and conversation, which is why we love them. 

  As you look through our Top 25, we welcome you to share your thoughts on our final choices. Email us or reach out to us on on Facebook or Twitter (@sportstarsmag, #bayarea75)

  The first 50 athletes were revealed exclusively at SportStarsOnline.com. You can access each of the first sets of 25 by clicking the following links: Nos. 75-51 and Nos. 50-26.

  We hope you enjoyed keeping track of this countdown as much as we did creating and releasing it.
