Every school year we report the winners of Gatorade’s Washington Player of the Year awards in various sports.
Among the 10 winners during the 2007-08 school year, only one was from a local school: Edmonds-Woodway’s Tony Heard, a running back/linebacker who received the football honor. You can see the complete list of 2007-08 winners here.
In 2006-07 the lone area winner was Brandon Kelley of the Snohomish boys soccer team.
