Two boys players from Catholic high schools in Diocese of Wilmington named to all-state teams

Latrell Wight drives for the Sals against Potomac (Va.) during the Governors Challenge in Salisbury, Md.

Latrell Wright of Salesianum and John Orsini of Archmere earned all-state honors for boys basketball for the 2025-26 season. The teams, announced March 20, were selected by the state’s coaches and media who regularly cover the sport.

Wright, a senior, was named to the second team. The Sals were 11-9 in the regular season against a very challenging schedule. The team won two games in the state tournament before bowing out in the quarterfinal round at William Penn.

Wright scored 236 points this season to lead the Sals, including the 1,000th of his career. He led the team in two-point field goals, free throws made and assists.
