In addition to Cardinal O’Hara’s Maggie Doogan, the 2021 Daily Times Player of the Year, the All-Delco team includes:
Amaris Baker, Cardinal O’Hara: The senior guard was the floor general for the PIAA Class 5A champions. Her court savvy and leadership were critical to the team’s success. A three-year starter at O’Hara, Baker eclipsed the 1,000-point plateau in her senior year. She excelled in all three seasons with O’Hara after transferring from Baldwin School following her freshman year. The All-Catholic League selection earned All-Delco second-team honors a year ago. Baker averaged eight points and three assists per game. She will continue her basketball career at Kennesaw State in Georgia.
