Today, numerous newspapers in Oklahoma select high school football teams, but it was The Oklahoman, published in Oklahoma City, that initiated the practice in the year 1913. That year, the newspaper published the first to be named Oklahoma high school All-State football team, designated the Oklahoma All-Star High School Eleven, chosen by newspaper sportswriters. Sportswriters of The Oklahoman selected a high school All-State team every remaining year of the twentieth century and continue doing so to this day.
