The 13th Region Girls’ Basketball Coaches Association released its 2025–26 All-Region Teams, highlighting the top performers from across the region following another competitive season.
North Laurel junior Mariella Claybrook was named the 13th Region Player of the Year after receiving the most total votes from region coaches.
