BASEBALL:

Jonah Shull and Max Paterson participated in the KingCo All State Feeder game on Thursday night.  Due to rain and lightning the scheduled double header was reduced to a single 10 inning game, with the 4A stars defeating the 3A team 11-7.   Jonah finished the 2 for 5 with an RBI and Max had three quality at bats reaching on an error and smashing a line drive that was caught by the third baseman.  Max also pitched two innings.   Jonah was selected by the committee to participate in the All-State baseball series in Yakima on June 25-26.   Congratulations to both Jonah and Max for participating in this event and representing our school in such an excellent fashion, and congratulations to Jonah for his all-state selection.

TENNIS:

Amil George competed in the state Boys' tennis championships in Kennewick this weekend. 

Amil had the longest match of the tournament in the first round. He was matched up against a player from Hanford. Amil is a warrior on the court. He never gives up even when his body breaks down on him. 

This match lasted 3 hours and 30 minutes. In the first set, Amil pulled out the tiebreaker 7-6. The tie-breaker score was 15-13 and just the tiebreaker took 45 minutes. 

In the second set, both boys played some great tennis. Hanford won the second set 6-4. From this point on Amil experienced severe leg cramps. But battled through them during the third set. It was another close-set. Amil came up short, 4-6. He played outstanding tennis.

After his marathon match, he had to be back on the court in just 30 minutes. He played valiantly but physically was not 100%. The score was 4-6, 0-6

Amil is such a great representative of Bothell High School. He showed class and great sportsmanship all throughout the tournament. We can all be very proud of his effort.

GOLF:

4A Boys Golf State Championship- how do you sum up 9 1/2 hours of competition in a paragraph? Here we go! Our own Walker Lamb took on a field of 126 of the best in our state! He started off the tournament with a birdie showing confidence and poise amid the intense pressure of a state competition. He scrambled his way through the opening round and finished with a 77, which put him tied for 22nd. After making the cut with ease, he started day two off with a few up and downs, sinking par putt after par putt. His first blemish occurred when his ball rolled into a small hole in the ground making for an impossible shot. He did the best he could and got the ball close to the green. After a few tough breaks on the opening nine, he finished with a 42 which was his highest 9-hole score of the year. What does Walker do? He refocuses, sinking a long 30+ foot birdie putt on his 10^th hole, sticks a shot to 3 feet on a par 3 for another birdie and continues to scramble getting up and down most of the back nine, finishing with a -1 back, 35, and another 77 for round 2.  His strong finish moved him 6 spots up the leaderboard and he ended up 16^th of 126.

Nice work Walker!
