Six from Bellevue up for all-star squad
Six preps from Bellevue and the Eastside Lions are among the statewide pool of players under consideration for the Washington Loggers all-star team.
Interlake’s Zakir Butte (U19), Evan Prince (U19), Vincent Facon (U17), Billy Bishop (U17) along with Rio Morales of Bellevue (U17) and Sammamish’s Tomas Narvaja are in the running for a spot on the squads.
The Loggers will play in the Great Northwest Challenge in Idaho in June against teams from Idaho, Montana and Oregon.
“These athletes have earned the opportunity to represent the Lions and the Bellevue area through their commitment to our club principles,” U19 head coach Josh Young said.
Members of the high school All-American national team will also be at the Great Northwest Challenge and players could earn a spot on the team that will travel through South Africa later in the summer.
