Flagg recently wrapped up his career with the Falcons after a District 1 Class 6A Tournament loss to Lower Merion. He will play college hoops at Division I Saint Francis (Loretto, Pa.).
Mark led Pennsbury this season with 18.2 points-per-game, 9.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.0 blocks-per-game.
Neshaminy junior Chris Arcidiacono also garnered First Team honors. He led the Skins this year with 21 points-per-game, five rebounds, four assists and two steals-per-game.
Along with Bensalem junior Richard Dean, Abington junior guard Robbie Heath and sophomore forward Eric Dixon made it onto the SOL National Conference First Team. The two players for the Galloping Ghosts tip off in states vs. District 3 rival Central Dauphin East 4 p.m. today at Bensalem High School.
