Union, Battle Ground, Columbia River, and La Center athletes named among the best in Washington
The Class 4A Greater St. Helens League continues to have an excellent basketball season.
A few weeks after three boys teams from the league made it to the state’s final 12, two players from the league were voted to The Associated Press’ all-state, first team.
Union senior Tanner Toolson, who was named Mr. Basketball by the Washington Interscholastic Basketball Coaches Association, is on the first team. So, too, is Battle Ground junior Kaden Perry.
