BASKETBALL SCHOLARSHIPS: From West Seattle High School girls’ basketball coach Sonya Elliott:
Best friends & WSHS graduates Kirby Davis and Taylor Magera will be playing basketball at Edmonds Community College this year. Kirby was West Seattle High School’s 2010-11 Most Improved Player and Taylor was Captain; they received basketball scholarships and will continue their education while playing under head coach Tarrance Tucker.
ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Tim McConnell from West Seattle Runner (WSB sponsor) shared the news that WSR part-time employee Max O’Donoghue-McDonald was named UW Husky Athlete of the Week after his recent win at the Sundodger Invitational in Lincoln Park, as the first Husky to win it two years in a row. Tim noted, “That’s a pretty big deal considering football usually dominates this time of year. Plus he is just a great kid. Customers love him and he always has a smile on his face, singing a song and just loving life. He definitely does West Seattle proud!”
