Prep Athletes of the Week — April 12 – 18

The athletes of the week are selected by The Herald staff with input from local head coaches.

Jason Shevenko

Mountlake Terrace | Baseball

Shevenko pitched a complete game four-hitter on Friday to lead the Hawks to a 3-1 win over Shorewood. It was the Thunderbirds’ first loss of the season.

Allison Endreson

Jackson | Softball

Endreson made two stellar plays in the outfield in Friday’s 3-1 win over Monroe. She ran down a ball in deep center field to lead off the Monroe fifth inning that would have gone for extra bases and she made another running catch in right-center field in the seventh inning, quickly firing the ball back to first base to double up a Monroe baserunner. Both plays helped preserve a win for Jackson.

Brett Bustad

Lakewood | Boys Track

The Lakewood senior won the long jump title with a leap of 22 feet, 3 inches at last weekend’s Eason Invitational and ran third for the Cougars in their winning 4 x 100 relay team to help Lakewood to a third-place team finish at the prestigious event.

Mikayla Pivec

Lynnwood | Girls Track

The junior had a full day at the Eason Invitational, winning the 800-meter run with a time of 2 minutes, 16.94 seconds, placing second in the javelin with a throw of 123 feet, 3 inches and anchoring the Lynnwood distance medley relay team which set a new meet record with a time of 12:03.99 – 40 seconds ahead of the next-fastest team.

Ben Gardner

Snohomish | Boys Golf

Gardner hit a 1-under 55 to earn co-medalist honors and lead Snohomish to a team victory in a match against Jackson, Mount Vernon and Mariner.

Kailee Mydske

Snohomish | Girls Golf

Mydske hit a hole-in-one on the par-3 14th hole at Walter Hall in a Wesco 4A league match last Wednesday. Mydske, who used a 7-iron for the ace, led the Panthers with a score of 71. Snohomish finished third in the eight-team match.

Sara Coppa and Taylor Monroe-Jones

Meadowdale | Girls Tennis

Coppa and Monroe-Jones went 2-0 last week and had a key victory in Meadowdale’s 4-3 victory over Shorecrest. The duo didn’t drop a set in the Mavericks’ second win of the week against Shorecrest, a 5-2 decision, on Friday.

Eric Koegler

Kamiak | Boys Soccer

The junior scored four goals for Kamiak in the Knights’ big 6-3 win over Mount Vernon in a game that featured two of the top three teams in the Wesco 4A standings. Koegler added another goal and an assist in Kamiak’s 2-0 win over Lake Stevens later in the week.

Justin Beretta

Everett | Boys Lacrosse

Beretta scored five goals and had three assists in a win over Blanchet on Tuesday. He had five more goals and an assist in a win over Lynden on Wednesday and had two more goals in a 14-6 loss to Mercer Island on Friday.
