SALTILLO — Now that all teams have been knocked out of the playoffs, District 24-1A recently announced their All-District awards for the 2023-24 girls basketball season. The Saltillo Lady Lions, the district champions, unsurprisingly were well represented, with all nine of their players earning All-District honors in some capacity.
