Speaker 1: single team. They raced on Wednesday, and here's kind of
2:28
Speaker 1: how it went down. There were basically five separate races,
2:32
Speaker 1: or five separate locations, I should say, a boys and
2:35
Speaker 1: girls race at each location. So a lot of stuff
2:38
Speaker 1: going on here. We're gonna talk girls cross country. First
2:41
Speaker 1: out at Lake Padden, two point six miles around that
2:45
Speaker 1: around that lake. I've done that run a lot. It's
2:48
Speaker 1: been a long time since I've actually ran it. I've
2:50
Speaker 1: walked it a lot recently. Still try to go out
2:53
Speaker 1: there about once a month at least to walk. I
2:55
Speaker 1: just don't have a lot of time. Get a lot
2:57
Speaker 1: more time in the summer. But I love I love
3:00
Speaker 1: that that lap around the lake. I I it's it's fantastic.
3:05
Speaker 1: It brings back a ton of memories too, so really
3:07
Speaker 1: cool that they get to do that. And so for girls,
3:11
Speaker 1: Sea Home won that Meridian took second, Oak Harbor took third.
3:15
Speaker 1: The winner there was Samantha Nip of Sea Home sixteen
3:18
Speaker 1: minutes and one point eight three seconds. Boy making it
3:21
Speaker 1: around that lap in sixteen minutes, it just boggles my
3:24
Speaker 1: mind because, like I said, I've been around that thing
3:26
Speaker 1: a lot and definitely takes longer than sixteen minutes. I'll
3:31
Speaker 1: get to tell you that much, even when I was
3:32
Speaker 1: in tip top shape and running quite a bit. So yeah,
3:37
Speaker 1: it's it's crazy. So congratulations to her for taking first
3:40
Speaker 1: place there. At Berthaston Park in Linden, another beautiful place.
3:45
Speaker 1: That was a five k run. Linden took first place
3:48
Speaker 1: in that and Bringston Edison's second, Lakewood third. Sloan Dixon

Speaker 1: from Lyndon won that race with a time of nineteen
3:55
Speaker 1: minutes and six point three to two seconds, and then
3:59
Speaker 1: out Pisarch Park in Blaine. That's awesome that they're running
4:03
Speaker 1: out there. I wonder if they if you run like

Speaker 1: first place in twenty minutes, thirty six and a half
5:02
Speaker 1: seconds on the boys side. All the same locations here

5:13
Speaker 1: points and then Oak Carver in third place. First place
5:16

5:26
Speaker 1: Out at Berthaston Park, Burlington Edison took first place, Lyndon second,
5:30

Speaker 1: a quarters took first place, Mount Vernon Christian second place,
6:14

Speaker 1: k run. The top time for Walkam County was by
6:20
Speaker 1: Caleb one Shack of Ferndale Am I saying that right,
6:24

6:48
Speaker 1: new thing this week and there will be a grap
6:49
Speaker 1: to show it later on Today is the Staffer Insurance
6:53
Speaker 1: Runner of the Week, and I'm going with Taylor Rush
6:57
Speaker 1: Out of Squalicum. I, I, you know, haven't heard that
7:02
Speaker 1: much about him, and he kind of blew away the
7:05
Speaker 1: competition a little bit. I was there to check it
7:08
Speaker 1: out and was crazy because there's an area where you
7:11
Speaker 1: can stand by the big red barn where you kind
7:13
Speaker 1: of see everybody come through that first lap, and he
7:17
Speaker 1: was probably in like, I don't know, ninth or tenth
7:20
Speaker 1: place or something like that, and then all of a sudden,
7:22
Speaker 1: when the second lap came through, he was well out
7:24
Speaker 1: ahead of everybody. So I really liked what he did there.
7:27
Speaker 1: Turned it on at the end. Congratulations to Taylor Rush
7:30
Speaker 1: out of Squalicum. He's your staff for Insurance Runner of
7:33
Speaker 1: the Week, the first ever. Pretty cool deal there. So
7:39
Speaker 1: now we're gonna jump over to girls swimming and diving.
7:44
Speaker 1: You know, it's very it's it's it's very good for
7:48
Speaker 1: the city schools right now. Let's just put it that way.
7:50
Speaker 1: Bellingham three and oh, Squalicum three and oh see them
7:52
Speaker 1: two and zero, uh and uh So pretty darn good
7:56
Speaker 1: there as far as as far as scores go. Linnen
7:59
Speaker 1: and Ferndale still looking for their first wins of the season,
8:03
Speaker 1: but they're still putting up some pretty good times. So
8:05
Speaker 1: there are swimmers from other schools. We're talking about Baker, Meridian, Blaine,
8:09
Speaker 1: that kind of co op with some schools, which is great.
8:13
Speaker 1: Blaine has quite a few. They even have enough to
8:15
Speaker 1: form relay teams and stuff like that. So really really
8:19
Speaker 1: cool deal that they're allowed to do that and swim
8:23
Speaker 1: with these other schools and compete, which is great because
8:26
Speaker 1: there are athletes all over the place. And I remember, boy,
8:31
Speaker 1: I remember thinking about maybe doing tennis back in the day.
8:37
Speaker 1: It was a spring sport. I think back when I
8:39
Speaker 1: was in high school. Of course, we didn't have a
8:41
Speaker 1: tennis team, but I grew up with the tennis court
8:43
Speaker 1: in my backyard just happened to be there, and my
8:46
Speaker 1: grandpa built the house put it in, and so I
8:49
Speaker 1: enjoyed playing tennis as a kid. Really curious to see
8:52
Speaker 1: how it would have gone against other players in high school.
8:55
Speaker 1: I probably would have got smoked, but it would have
8:58
Speaker 1: been fun. So let's look at the top times here
9:01
Speaker 1: in each event so far. In a girl's swimming and diving,
9:05
Speaker 1: the two hundred medley relay top time is from Bellingham.
9:09
Speaker 1: The swimmers are Addie Hayes, Amanda Buck, Jasmine Garcia and
9:12
Speaker 1: Jordan Eberling time of two minutes and ten point ninety
9:16
Speaker 1: five seconds, just one basically less than less than a
9:20
Speaker 1: second faster than Seaholme's time. There, so very very good there.
9:25
Speaker 1: In the two hundred freestyle, it's Haley Ferrell of Blame
9:28
Speaker 1: two minutes and fourteen seconds. In the two hundred individual medley,
9:32
Speaker 1: it's Lexi Jensen of Ferndale two minutes thirty five seconds.
9:36
Speaker 1: In the fifty freestyle, we have a new one from Seahome,
9:39
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna butcher the name Raha. I don't even
9:45
Speaker 1: want to try it Garai something like that. I know
9:49
Speaker 1: because coach Elsner is going to reach out to me
9:52
Speaker 1: and tell me how to say her name, hopefully, or
9:55
Speaker 1: maybe I will if she's on social media. Maybe I'll
9:57
Speaker 1: reach out and ask her to just say it in
9:59
Speaker 1: an audio clip and say it over so I can
10:00
Speaker 1: get it right. Rah Jehart Garai or holy Cow of
10:08
Speaker 1: Seahome on twenty seven point eight seven seconds. Basically, she's
10:11
Speaker 1: the fastest swimmer because the fifty freestyle is like the
10:13
Speaker 1: sprint and swimming, so I think it's just a one
10:16
Speaker 1: lapping back and get there as quickly as you can,
10:20
Speaker 1: and she's already qualified for Districts, getting there close to
10:25
Speaker 1: the qualifying time for state. In diving, we have a
10:28
Speaker 1: new leader, Jazzy Nelson of Squalicum one thirty five point
10:32
Speaker 1: ninety five. That's in six dives, so congratulations for her.
10:36
Speaker 1: To her for taking the lead. In the one hundred butterfly,
10:39
Speaker 1: it's Lexi Jensen of Ferndale minute and four seconds. And
10:42
Speaker 1: the one hundred freestyles eating Shields of Blaine one minute
10:46
Speaker 1: and two seconds, just edging out her teammate from Blaine,
10:50
Speaker 1: Haley Ferrell, so that's really cool. In the five hundred freestyle,
10:53
Speaker 1: the long distance swim, it's Soleo Robido of Squalicum six
10:58
Speaker 1: minutes and nine seconds. Two hundred freestyle relay, it's the
11:02
Speaker 1: Seahome team of again Raja. I'll just say Jenny Guo
11:09
Speaker 1: or Jenny Juo. Either way, I'm gonna find out these
11:12
Speaker 1: names sooner or labor later. Brielle Hicks and Taylor Tellison
11:16
Speaker 1: of Seahome right at just a hair over two minutes
11:19
Speaker 1: right now, about a second faster than the Bellingham time.
11:22
Speaker 1: The one hundred backstroke Lexi Jensen again of Ferndale one
11:26
Speaker 1: minute and six seconds. Boy, Lexi Jensen leads in a
11:30
Speaker 1: ton of these. That's really really impressive. I'm gonna have
11:33
Speaker 1: to find out some more information on her and maybe
11:37
Speaker 1: get her to do an intro soon for this podcast.
11:39
Speaker 1: And the one hundred breaststroke, it's Jazzy Nelson of Squalicum.
11:43
Speaker 1: I love that. Top diver in the one hundred breaststroke,
11:46
Speaker 1: very very impressive, and she's also part of the top
11:49
Speaker 1: four hundred freestyle relay team from Squalicum. It also involves
11:54
Speaker 1: Soleil Roubido, Eliah Zuk and Ellie Hanslick, and of course
11:58
Speaker 1: Jazzy Nelson are part of that as well. So, uh,
12:01
Speaker 1: these are times that you're gonna see keep dropping every
12:03
Speaker 1: single week, with perhaps new leaders here and there, but
12:06
Speaker 1: for the most part, the times overall are gonna drop
12:09
Speaker 1: and only get better. So congratulations to all of them
12:12
Speaker 1: for for, you know, putting up these unbelievable times. And
12:16
Speaker 1: we're gonna see some of these Bellingham schools and a
12:18
Speaker 1: Chordus also undefeed as well, I believe so in Mount Vernon.
12:22
Speaker 1: So when they start meeting each other. We'll kind of
12:25
Speaker 1: see how the rubber hits the road there so or
12:28
Speaker 1: maybe how the water hits the the bottom of the
12:32
Speaker 1: swimming pool. Anyways, Uh, let's go to boys tennis now.
12:37
Speaker 1: And boys tennis is actually sponsored by zos and Salon
12:40
Speaker 1: and Spa. You can give them a call three six
12:42
Speaker 1: zero seven one five one zero five zero and book something.
12:47
Speaker 1: Now you get your hair, did you get a massage,
12:50
Speaker 1: you get a facial all that spa stuff. They are fantastic.
12:56
Speaker 1: You can visit them online Zozen SALONSPA dot com or
13:00
Speaker 1: see them in person of eleven bell weather Way Sweet
13:03
Speaker 1: one O two in Bellingham, right there on the waterfront.
13:07
Speaker 1: Amazing people there and they will treat you right. So
13:12
Speaker 1: definitely definitely the place to go. And when you look
13:15
Speaker 1: at boys tennis standings, it's starting to kind of spread
13:19
Speaker 1: out a little bit. See Home Bellingham both five and
13:22
Speaker 1: zero on the year Seehome. As far as just courts one,
13:26
Speaker 1: they're thirty two and three and Bellingham's thirty one and four,
13:29
Speaker 1: so very very even with each other. So of course
13:32
Speaker 1: that's gonna be a great matchup when they play. And
13:36
Speaker 1: a cordus right there at four and one, but they're
13:39
Speaker 1: only nineteen and sixteen in their courts won, so that's
13:42
Speaker 1: could be a little deceiving. They've been winning a lot
13:44
Speaker 1: of close matches. O Carver Mount, Vernon, Squalk, Them and
13:47
Speaker 1: Burlington are all two and two, Linden is two and three,
13:50
Speaker 1: Ferndale's one and four, while Cedro, Woolly and Lakewood still
13:54
Speaker 1: looking for their first wins as a team. Although Lakewood's
13:58
Speaker 1: got a couple of really good, really really good singles players.
14:03
Speaker 1: One of them is as an exchange student from Germany
14:07
Speaker 1: and he's their top singles player. So Lakewood has got
14:09
Speaker 1: some good top end talent there that just haven't won
14:12
Speaker 1: any matches yet as a team. As far as kind
14:15
Speaker 1: of the top players in Walking County that we've been
14:16
Speaker 1: talking about, Harley Kaiser of Seahome is five and oh
14:19
Speaker 1: so far. Leo Kuhn of Belling Him and Justin Barrass
14:22
Speaker 1: of Seahome are each four and one, and then the
14:25
Speaker 1: team of Sean Lane and Christian Leon of Seahome they're
14:29
Speaker 1: also five and zero as a team. So we're gonna
14:33
Speaker 1: start seeing some pretty good matchups coming up. It seems
14:36
Speaker 1: like they really crime amment a lot early, but it
14:39
Speaker 1: makes sense, right It's a weather thing. I think you
14:42
Speaker 1: got to get them all in by a certain time,
14:44
Speaker 1: and then once playoffs hit, you gotta wait till May.
14:46
Speaker 1: So you're gonna start seeing a lot of tennis stuff
14:50
Speaker 1: going up. And I love that they start at like
14:52
Speaker 1: four o'clock, sometimes like three thirty, four o'clock, sometimes four thirty.
14:56
Speaker 1: But it works out really well because I can get
14:58
Speaker 1: out there, I can get pictures for going to some
15:00
Speaker 1: of these later events that happen, and taking pictures during
15:04
Speaker 1: the day is always great too. And and everybody in
15:07
Speaker 1: the tennis area, of the coaches, everybody had been super grateful,
15:13
Speaker 1: and and I'm thankful for that, you know, for for
15:15
Speaker 1: allowing me to show up. Sometimes I can get inside
15:17
Speaker 1: the cage take take some pictures. I try not to
15:20
Speaker 1: be a distraction at all, but boy, it's a lot.
15:23
Speaker 1: It's a lot of fun. And you know, I grew
15:24
Speaker 1: up loving tennis, so it's a it's such a fun sport.
15:28
Speaker 1: And to see really really good tennis, I could just
15:30
Speaker 1: sit and watch. I can watch Harley Kaiser play forever
15:33
Speaker 1: because he's just he's just so mechanical, but he's got
15:36
Speaker 1: so much power as well. And that that combo is
15:39
Speaker 1: gonna bode well, especially when he gets to the to
15:41
Speaker 1: the state tournament. I think he's got a real shot
15:43
Speaker 1: to make some noise in the state tournament. So looking
15:47
Speaker 1: forward to that, it's gonna be another big, big week.
15:50
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's gonna be awesome. Let's jump over to
15:53
Speaker 1: girls soccer now. Of course, girls soccer brought to you
15:57
Speaker 1: by North County Alliance FC. Uh them online ncalliance FC
16:02
Speaker 1: dot com and it's it was such a tremendous sponsor.
16:05
Speaker 1: They're the first one. They're they're the first sponsor to
16:08
Speaker 1: lock in with Walkom Preps for multiple years, and that
16:11
Speaker 1: in turn gives me the confidence to believe in myself
16:14
Speaker 1: and keep doing what I'm doing. I cannot say, I
16:18
Speaker 1: cannot say enough about North County Alliance FC. You know,
16:22
Speaker 1: they reached out to me and everything since that was
16:25
Speaker 1: a few years ago. Ever since then, it's been super positive,
16:30
Speaker 1: helpful too. If I need to get a score, I
16:32
Speaker 1: can reach out to somebody there I you know, have
16:35
Speaker 1: a question about. I mean, I remember going to a
16:37
Speaker 1: playoff game when it was tied and I didn't know
16:40
Speaker 1: how they were going to settle the tie. I had
16:42
Speaker 1: no idea. I'd never witnessed it before. You know, in
16:44
Speaker 1: the Railars season it's a tie, and I remember asking
16:48
Speaker 1: questions and they're very helpful and say, yes, there's gonna
16:52
Speaker 1: be like, you know, a ten minute overtime and then
16:54
Speaker 1: from there it's a shootout. Each team gets five and
16:56
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, and it was so exciting
16:58
Speaker 1: and so so it's very very thankful for their for
17:02
Speaker 1: their partnership. You look at the league standings right now
17:05
Speaker 1: and it's, you know, most teams have played you know,
17:11
Speaker 1: four league games, some five and and as of now,
17:16
Speaker 1: ok haarber that's because they've played five. They're they're leading
17:20
Speaker 1: with a five and oh league record. There's seven and
17:22
Speaker 1: oh overall. Linden and Seaholm are both four and oh
17:25
Speaker 1: in league, both five and oh overall. Ferndale has not
17:29
Speaker 1: lost yet, but they do have a tie. They're three
17:31
Speaker 1: and oh in league with one tie, and then uh
17:36
Speaker 1: Anacordis and Bellingham are each three and one. Uh Squal
17:39
Speaker 1: comes two to one in one. Mount Vernon's one one
17:42
Speaker 1: and two, Lake was one two and two, Lennon Christian
17:45
Speaker 1: one two and one, Sigel Woollie and Meridian are each
17:47
Speaker 1: one and three. Nuksack Valley oh and three with a tie.
17:51
Speaker 1: The Mount Baker, Burlington and Blaine are all oh to four,
17:56
Speaker 1: but Nukxack Valley is actually the only team that does
17:58
Speaker 1: not have a win yet. But they also, i think
18:02
Speaker 1: are the only team that have not played in non
18:05
Speaker 1: conference match, so they've only played four on the year
18:08
Speaker 1: and they've all been in conference. So that kind of
18:11
Speaker 1: gives you that right there. So it's starting to thin out,
18:14
Speaker 1: or not thin out, but kind of spread out. You're
18:16
Speaker 1: seeing you know, the usual names up top there with
18:19
Speaker 1: Seahome and Linden. You know, I have not seen Oak
18:22
Speaker 1: Harbor play out. You know, obviously it's a non walkin
18:25
Speaker 1: county team, but it gives me an idea that if
18:28
Speaker 1: they're you know, coming to town to play one of
18:30
Speaker 1: these top teams might be a really good match to
18:32
Speaker 1: go out to. So that's that's really exciting. I'm really curious.
18:37
Speaker 1: I'm glad that the Stormers are holding strong right now
18:40
Speaker 1: to one in one in league. You know, waiting for
18:44
Speaker 1: their super goalie Kylina Perez to come back from injury.
18:48
Speaker 1: That's only going to help that team more. It's very
18:50
Speaker 1: very young team, but very good. Bellingham just seems to
18:54
Speaker 1: always pull out wins when they need them. They did
18:57
Speaker 1: lose to see Home. They're on a close one three
18:59
Speaker 1: zero Seahome and Lindon obviously, you know right up there,
19:04
Speaker 1: very very you know, playing really really well. Seahome has
19:07
Speaker 1: not allowed a goal in league play, so they're averaging basically,
19:12
Speaker 1: they're averaging six point eight goals a match and allowing
19:15
Speaker 1: zero point zero. So so that really shows their dominance
19:22
Speaker 1: as an overall team where they're scoring more goals than
19:24
Speaker 1: anybody and they're allowing the least amount of goal. So
19:27
Speaker 1: that tells you everything you need to know there. If
19:31
Speaker 1: we look at if we go to this the goal
19:36
Speaker 1: leaders on the season, That's what I'm trying to say, Tyler.
19:40
Speaker 1: What I love about this is there's a lot of
19:43
Speaker 1: players from different schools. I mean, it's really really spread out.
19:47
Speaker 1: If we usually do a top ten, but we're gonna
19:49
Speaker 1: have to go with eleven because there's a five way
19:51
Speaker 1: tie with four goals, and so players that have four goals.
19:57
Speaker 1: We're talking Teaking Ambrose for Ferndale. She's just a sophomore.
20:01
Speaker 1: Another sophomore, Kaylin Hinton, Kayln Hinton of Lynn and Christian.
20:06
Speaker 1: She has four goals. Ava Simons of Squalkum. The senior
20:10
Speaker 1: has four goals. Ailey Holford, a freshman from Mount Baker,
20:14
Speaker 1: has four and Kate Keureski, the junior of Blaine as
20:17
Speaker 1: four as well. Kate Kureski, of course three sport athletes here.
20:21
Speaker 1: Her do a lot of things, very very competitive, very
20:25
Speaker 1: very athletic. You know the kind of player that you
20:28
Speaker 1: want in your locker room, but also the kind of
20:30
Speaker 1: player you want on the field to push you. So
20:33
Speaker 1: really fun getting to know her over the years in
20:35
Speaker 1: multiple sports. A three are sorry, a four way tie
20:39
Speaker 1: for third place with five goals. We got Mia Collins,
20:43
Speaker 1: the freshman from Ferndale, Siri Hoakland of Squalkum, she's just
20:48
Speaker 1: a sophomore. Nayla Speer, junior from Lynnon Christian and the
20:53
Speaker 1: freshman from Blaine Ruby Bellermino has five goals. Only two
20:57
Speaker 1: players left second place with seven been goals on the
21:00
Speaker 1: year is Ryan Bame of Seahome. Her and her twin sister.
21:05
Speaker 1: They used to go to Sea Home, they transferred and
21:07
Speaker 1: an now they're back for their senior year. Very very exciting.
21:11
Speaker 1: I think they I make sure I want to get
21:14
Speaker 1: this correct. I'll definitely have it correct next week. But
21:17
Speaker 1: I believe one's going to U dub Neil wouldn't going
21:20
Speaker 1: to Gonzaega for soccer. I want to make sure I
21:22
Speaker 1: could be wrong with that, so I should have done
21:25
Speaker 1: my research. But I have not seen them in person yet.
21:28
Speaker 1: I've had Channer Rusk, who's a Sea Home athlete and
21:33
Speaker 1: student who takes really good pictures. I've had him help
21:36
Speaker 1: me out with a few different Sea Home soccer games
21:38
Speaker 1: and he's been fantastic so far. But I do want
21:42
Speaker 1: to catch them at some point. I'm sure i'll catch
21:45
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. But really, really you know, impressed so
21:49
Speaker 1: far with how they've been doing. And then the leader
21:52
Speaker 1: right now is Addie Wilson. The Squalicum sophomore has nine
21:57
Speaker 1: goals on the year, so really really of their I
22:01
Speaker 1: know that the team put up nine goals against Burlington
22:04
Speaker 1: Edison earlier this week and a really really fine performance there.
22:08
Speaker 1: From there, we'll go to the North County Alliance Player
22:11
Speaker 1: of the Week. And there were a few kind of
22:14
Speaker 1: areas I was looking at. I was looking at what
22:16
Speaker 1: Seaholm was doing Ferndale Lindon, But I'm going with the
22:21
Speaker 1: Squalum sophomore Addie Wilson. She had five goals this week,
22:25
Speaker 1: including four against Burlington Edison. I'm trying to think if
22:29
Speaker 1: there's been a game that Squalum's had where she didn't score,
22:33
Speaker 1: and I don't think it's happened yet. So nine goals
22:36
Speaker 1: already on the year, five goals this past week. So
22:39
Speaker 1: congratulations to the Squalum sophomore Addie Wilson on being named
22:43
Speaker 1: the North County Alliance Girls Soccer Player of the Week.
22:48
Speaker 1: And now let's jump into volleyball. And of course volleyball
22:55

23:36
Speaker 1: cool partnership and so I'm really excited about that and
23:40
Speaker 1: I'm excited to get in touch with them and getting
23:42
Speaker 1: some walk them preps gear made so so many people.
23:46
Speaker 1: I mean, anytime I'm at an event, it could be coaches,
23:49
Speaker 1: it could be students, it could be I mean even
23:51
Speaker 1: officials have come up and said, hey, where can I
23:53
Speaker 1: get a hoodie? Where can I get a hat? Where
23:55
Speaker 1: can I get a shirt? And there was like that
23:57
Speaker 1: two week window a couple of years ago where that
23:59
Speaker 1: was a thing where people could get that stuff, And
24:03
Speaker 1: I really want to bring it back, and this might
24:04
Speaker 1: be the way to do it is to go through
24:06
Speaker 1: the Printh House Design and Inc. So that'll be fun.
24:09
Speaker 1: So so yeah, I will. That's coming up. You know,
24:14
Speaker 1: I'm really really busy right now, but I want to
24:16
Speaker 1: try to have a store up soon so people can
24:18
Speaker 1: get some gear. So let's look at the standings really quickly.
24:23
Speaker 1: In volleyball, and you know when we last talk, everyone
24:26
Speaker 1: basically just had like one league match. Well now everyone's
24:29
Speaker 1: got three league matches, so a lot more volleyball has
24:31
Speaker 1: been played, and we got four teams that are undefeated
24:35
Speaker 1: in league play already and they're all walking county teams,
24:39
Speaker 1: which is really exciting to see Ferndale Seahome, Linden and
24:42
Speaker 1: Linden Christian. So we got a lot of flavor between
24:44
Speaker 1: the classifications A three, A couple two a's and A
24:47
Speaker 1: one A not super surprising, I guess, I think, I
24:53
Speaker 1: don't know, it's interesting. I think Ferndale maybe is a
24:56
Speaker 1: little bit of a surprise just because they graduated so
25:00
Speaker 1: many seniors last year, but that you know, they brought
25:02
Speaker 1: back a couple of major superstars as well, so it's
25:06
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's all about how do the new
25:08
Speaker 1: players fit and how quickly do they develop into being
25:12
Speaker 1: you know, everyday varsity starting stars, and those players have
25:18
Speaker 1: really stepped up. So in turns Ferndale is undefeated, Seahome,
25:22
Speaker 1: Linden and Lyndon Christian as well. At two and one
25:25
Speaker 1: Burlington Edison and Knuksack Valley Burlington Edison losing to see Home.
25:30
Speaker 1: I was at that match. It was the first time
25:33
Speaker 1: in eleven years that see Home beat Burlington Edison. Burlington Edison,
25:37
Speaker 1: of course has just been a stalwart and fall volleyball.
25:40
Speaker 1: I mean they are every single year year in a year,
25:43
Speaker 1: and they did lose some big time players, they're still
25:46
Speaker 1: quite good. Like I said, they are two and one
25:48
Speaker 1: in league play, so they're still pretty darn good, but
25:52
Speaker 1: there might there might just be a notch below what
25:54
Speaker 1: they've been in the last few years. Knuksack Valley, Like
25:57
Speaker 1: I said, two and one on the year, you know,
26:01
Speaker 1: losing that one to Lindon, so that's you know, nothing
26:04
Speaker 1: to sneeze at, you know, I mean's that's pretty durn good.
26:07
Speaker 1: At one and two. We got a ton of teams
26:09
Speaker 1: here and a Cortus, Bellingham, Meridian, Cedar, Woolli, Squalak andm Blaine,
26:13
Speaker 1: Mount Vernon and Oak Harbor all one and two. Meridian
26:19
Speaker 1: they almost had Lindon. They were at Lindon, they were
26:22
Speaker 1: up two sets to zero, and Linden does what Linden does.
26:26
Speaker 1: They found a way to come back. That fourth set
26:29
Speaker 1: was a thriller. I believe it ended twenty nine twenty seven,
26:33
Speaker 1: So there was a lot of times when it got
26:35
Speaker 1: really close to where Meridian could have ended it right
26:37
Speaker 1: then and there a touch killed by Finley Parcher put
26:41
Speaker 1: it into the fifth set, and then Linden kind of
26:44
Speaker 1: rode that momentum there I believe, when fifteen to ten
26:47
Speaker 1: in the fifth set. So man I was watching the
26:51
Speaker 1: I was watched the last two and a half sets
26:54
Speaker 1: basically online once I got home, and it was awesome.
26:59
Speaker 1: I mean, it was it just it gets so so
27:02
Speaker 1: exciting and and so I'm really really excited for you know,
27:07
Speaker 1: postseason stuff like that. The Squalkum has looked really good too.
27:11
Speaker 1: Bellingham is as much improved zero and three on the year,
27:15
Speaker 1: Mount Baker and Lakewood, you know, kind of we'll see
27:18
Speaker 1: how they get going after a while. Mount Baker is
27:24
Speaker 1: still the only team in the conference that does not
27:26
Speaker 1: have a set win yet, but they've gotten close a
27:30
Speaker 1: few times, so I already think that they're much improved
27:34
Speaker 1: from last year, and we'll just kind of have to
27:37
Speaker 1: see if they can keep going throughout the year, keep
27:40
Speaker 1: gaining that confidence and the communication. The communication is key, right.
27:44
Speaker 1: So there's also this really cool thing on the Washington
27:48
Speaker 1: State Volleyball Coaches Association where they vote kind of like
27:53
Speaker 1: a like in the state, like who are the top
27:55
Speaker 1: teams and at at A And if I'm looking at
28:01
Speaker 1: three A, I'm looking for Ferndale. I do not see them,
28:04
Speaker 1: so even though they are undefeated, so we'll have to
28:07
Speaker 1: see it. But in two A Linden right now is
28:10
Speaker 1: tied for first in the state, tied with Columbia River,
28:14
Speaker 1: who we've seen them at state. They're very very good,
28:18
Speaker 1: and Sea Home is tied for seventh in the state,
28:21
Speaker 1: and then burlingtonis and also they're kind of in the
28:24
Speaker 1: others like also receiving votes type thing, just outside the
28:27
Speaker 1: top ten, but still pretty impressive. In the one A level.
28:32
Speaker 1: You got Lynden Christian ranked fifth, Meridian sixth, and at
28:35
Speaker 1: least seventh. How crazy is that? And I believe only
28:39
Speaker 1: two teams get to go to state, so that is
28:41
Speaker 1: a shame because we got three stalwarts there. Blaine is
28:44
Speaker 1: also in their receiving votes as well, So really really cool.
28:48
Speaker 1: I love to be able to I'll be able to
28:50
Speaker 1: give these rankings to you each week. That's a new
28:53
Speaker 1: thing that coach Jansen and Lyndon Christian has shared with me.
28:55
Speaker 1: So really really cool deal there. And then when we
29:00
Speaker 1: look at the stat Leaders, the stat Leaders are brought
29:02
Speaker 1: to you by Apex Northwest Volleyball Club and they've sponsored
29:06
Speaker 1: the weekly stat Leaders last year, they're on it this year.
29:09
Speaker 1: They're going to do the top fifty list at the
29:11
Speaker 1: end of the year. So it's a really really cool
29:13
Speaker 1: deal there. Apex Northwest Volleyball Club is a nonprofit that
29:16
Speaker 1: has practice facilities in Bellingham, Linden, and Ferndale and offer
29:20
Speaker 1: opportunities in learning volleyball skills that competitive play for girls
29:24
Speaker 1: ages ten through eighteen. A large part of their goal
29:28
Speaker 1: involves building an inclusive volleyball program and community that desires
29:32
Speaker 1: the further love of the game. They welcome athletes from
29:35
Speaker 1: all over to come and join APEX at Northwest Volleyball
29:38
Speaker 1: Club as they continue to grow, travel to competitive tournaments,
29:42
Speaker 1: and provide opportunities for athletes to play club volleyball. They
29:45
Speaker 1: emphasize playing in a positive, nurturing environment, cheat teaching the
29:49
Speaker 1: concepts of teamwork, sportsmanship, and having fun. Their goal is
29:54
Speaker 1: to support APEX Northwest athletes in reaching their goal of
29:58
Speaker 1: playing at the middle school, high school, and even collegiate levels.
30:01
Speaker 1: You can visit them online at APEX NW Volleyball Club
30:06
Speaker 1: dot org and again awesome sponsorship. You know they they
30:13
Speaker 1: are all in and I love that too, And so
30:16
Speaker 1: it's boy, I'm the luckiest guy in the world. I
30:19
Speaker 1: just gotta tell you that I can't believe I get
30:21
Speaker 1: to do this for a living. This is and and
30:24
Speaker 1: you know I will not can't stop won't stop. That's
30:27
Speaker 1: how I feel about it. So let's look at the
30:30
Speaker 1: weekly stat leaders so far and kills per set. Finleyparture
30:35
Speaker 1: of Lindon has retaken the lead. She's a junior. She's
30:38
Speaker 1: at four point eight eight at kills per set. She's
30:44
Speaker 1: right right behind her is Page Floory of Seahome. In
30:47
Speaker 1: diggs per set, it's Katrina Ferry from Ferndale, the senior
30:52
Speaker 1: liberro with the Golden Eagles, is at four point two
30:54
Speaker 1: five digs per set. Right behind her is McKenna Andrews
30:59
Speaker 1: of Seahome. No surprise there. Those are probably the two
31:02
Speaker 1: best libarros in the county. I probably wouldn't even say probably,
31:06
Speaker 1: they are the two best liberos in the county. And
31:08
Speaker 1: you could flip a coin on which one's better aces
31:11
Speaker 1: per set. Still Page Floory out of Sea Home one
31:14
Speaker 1: point three to three aces per set. Right behind her
31:17
Speaker 1: Chloe Bresler of Meridian and Sonoma Smith of Bellingham. In
31:22
Speaker 1: assists per set, it's Ella Fritz of Lendy Christian ten
31:26
Speaker 1: point two eight assists. You know, Lindy Christian just played
31:30
Speaker 1: in this huge tournament up in BC over the weekend
31:33
Speaker 1: and they took first place. There was I don't know,
31:35
Speaker 1: thirty two teams or something like that. They took first
31:38
Speaker 1: place and Ella Fritz was named the MVP of the tournament.
31:41
Speaker 1: And that's no surprise there. She's just that kind of athlete.
31:46
Speaker 1: She's at ten point two eight assists per set. Right
31:48
Speaker 1: behind her is Taylor Terrell of Seahome who this is
31:52
Speaker 1: her first year as the main setter on the varsity
31:54
Speaker 1: squad and she's doing a great, great job. Talk about
31:57
Speaker 1: Ella Fritz and Taylor Terrell that those are some battles
32:00
Speaker 1: on the basketball court as well, but right now getting
32:02
Speaker 1: it getting the job done as setters on each team's
32:06
Speaker 1: volleyball teams. And then blocks per set still holding strong
32:10
Speaker 1: as Ali Wright of Linden Christian one point zero six
32:13
Speaker 1: blocks per set. Right behind her as Rebecca Sores from
32:17
Speaker 1: Mount Baker and just her second year of playing the sport,
32:20
Speaker 1: so obviously an amazing basketball player, still learning how to
32:25
Speaker 1: play volleyball, but at six foot three and some hops,
32:28
Speaker 1: she is a really imposing figure there at the net
32:31
Speaker 1: for blocks. So really really cool there, and now it's
32:36
Speaker 1: time to talk players up the week. Those are brought
32:39
Speaker 1: to you by the Acceleration Driving School in Lindon. Well,
32:43
Speaker 1: at least one of them is they're sponsoring the defensive
32:46
Speaker 1: player of the week. You could check out Acceleration Driving
32:49
Speaker 1: School and Linden. Give Kevin a call at three six
32:52
Speaker 1: zero seven four six four five six seven. You have
32:56
Speaker 1: someone that's ready to drive in your household suck somebody listening,
33:00
Speaker 1: does I guarantee you? I mean you're you know, your
33:03
Speaker 1: parents of high school kids for crying out loud, tell
33:06
Speaker 1: call Kevin, tell him you heard about them on the
33:08
Speaker 1: Walkham Preps podcast Acceleration Driving School in Lindon three six
33:13
Speaker 1: zero seven four six four five six seven. Now the
33:18
Speaker 1: offensive player of the week is without a sponsor, so
33:20
Speaker 1: if you want to jump on that, get a hold
33:22
Speaker 1: of me. But right now it's the Walkham Preps Offensive
33:25
Speaker 1: Player of the Week in volleyball and that player this
33:28
Speaker 1: week is Seahome junior Page Flory. I saw her in person,
33:32
Speaker 1: and I tell you what there was. There were moments
33:34
Speaker 1: as a freshman that were like, oh, I should take
33:37
Speaker 1: note of this player. Mostly it was from her serves.
33:40
Speaker 1: You know, she could really get off the ground and
33:43
Speaker 1: has a really powerful serve and she'd play a little bit,
33:47
Speaker 1: you know, other than that, but then last year, especially
33:50
Speaker 1: later in the year, she took on a bigger role
33:52
Speaker 1: as an outside hitter. And this year, I mean, she's
33:55
Speaker 1: one of the best right now. And she had a great,
33:57
Speaker 1: great week both with attacks and at the service line.
34:01
Speaker 1: So Page Flory of Seahome, she's your offensive player of
34:05
Speaker 1: the week. The defensive player of the week is Katrina Ferry,
34:10
Speaker 1: the livero from Ferndale. Yeah. Just I mean she is
34:16
Speaker 1: all over the court. I mean the stuff she does,
34:18
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't can't understand how she can
34:20
Speaker 1: dive after something but still get it to her cetter
34:23
Speaker 1: in the perfect spot. That's the combination that just boggles
34:28
Speaker 1: my mind. And I really want to go out to
34:30
Speaker 1: like a volleyball practice and if there's a volleyball coach
34:33
Speaker 1: or player that's listening and can do this. I don't
34:36
Speaker 1: want to interrupt the season at all, but I really
34:38
Speaker 1: want to have like I just want to stand in
34:40
Speaker 1: the back court and have someone serve the ball to me,
34:43
Speaker 1: and I just want to see if I can if
34:45
Speaker 1: I can not dig it out but basically just hit
34:49
Speaker 1: it up in the air and get it so it's
34:51
Speaker 1: somewhat playable without hitting it and having can go way
34:54
Speaker 1: out of balance. I'm just curious because I really want
34:56
Speaker 1: to see because when I'm sitting behind the court and
34:58
Speaker 1: that ball is shaken like a knuckleball, That's what's crazy
