The Guelph Royals (15-10) lead the way with seven players selected to the all-star squad, including first baseman Trevor Churchill, who leads the team with a .380 batting average and has a league-high 13 stolen bases. Barrie Baycats infielder Jared McCord, who is leading the league with 30 hits and a .441 batting average, will start at second base.
