Leesburg High School point guard Joe Toolie headed up a list of five area prep basketball players who were named on Thursday to the Florida Athletic Coaches Association All-State and Academic All-State teams.
Toolie was the area's lone representative in Class 6A, while Eustis' Dustin Dunham was named to the Class 5A team, South Sumter's Shawn Baker got the nod in Class 4A, and Wildwood's Cameron Graham earned the honors in Class 1A.
In addition, Eustis' Josh Brown was named to the Class 5A Academic All-State team.
Toolie, a 6-foot-3 senior, helped the Yellow Jackets reach the Florida High School Athletic Association state finals for the second year in a row.
