Outstanding displays from Waikato schools at the national secondary basketball champs were rewarded when a swag of players made the tournament teams.

Church College's Letava Whippy (180-F-91) won her second consecutive Most Valuable Player award in leading her side to the title defence in Palmerston North on Saturday.

The Fijian international was joined in tournament teams by Church College teammates Austin Rarere and Moengaroa Subritzky, while Fraser High School's Fran Hansen was also selected. Beaten finalists in the boys' competition, Fraser High, had Matt Aird and Daniel Green selected in a tournament team, while third-placed Church College had Jivarne Joseph and Jared Whippy named.

No one had got within 20 points of Church College all week at the tournament in the girls' section and it was no different for opponents Rangitoto College in the final, beaten 87-55.
