Holcomb led a group of 11 other players from York and Adams counties who earned all-state honors.

Holcomb, a junior shortstop, hit .740 with 57 hits in 77 at-bats for the Squirettes, who won the District 3 Class AA title.

As the YAIAA's best hitter, Holcomb scored 50 runs and posted 53 RBIs. She was also named a GameTimePA.com YAIAA first-team all-star.

Holcomb's teammate Katie Laughman was named an all-state third baseman. The junior batted .500 with five home runs, 27 RBIs and 35 runs scored.

In Class AAA, West York's Kelsie Weaver was named first-team catcher. The senior batted .552 with 13 RBIs and 10 runs scored. She had just one error in 78 chances and faced only one stolen base attempt, which was unsuccessful.
