Archbishop Murphy third baseman Eric Lawson and Lakewood infielder Alex Keen made the 2A second team.

In 4A, Lake Stevens teammates Dylan LaVelle and Anthony Blackie were named to the first team along with Kamiak outfielder Jacob Bettencourt and Jackson outfielder Sam Brown. Edmonds-Woodway’s Ben Roquet, Marysville Pilchuck’s Brandon Dormaier and Jackson’s Joakim Soderqvist On the 4A second team.
