The All-WPIAL and all-section girls lacrosse teams for both Class AAA and Class AA recently were finalized.

The teams are listed below.

The all-star selection process began with each coach nominating five players from their team. From there, the all-section and All-WPIAL teams were assembled based on the votes from coaches.
