Dowagiac junior catcher Mandy Parish has been named first team All-State in Division 2.
The team was announced last week following the state finals held in Battle Creek.
The squad is selected by the Michigan High School Softball Coaches Association.
In last week's Daily News, Parish was incorrectly identified as a member of the second team.
We regret the error.
The All-State squad consists of a first team and an honorable mention squad.
There are four players at each position named first team All-State.
Parish hit .404 last season for the Chieftains with 32 RBIs and two home runs.
