#5
Wyatt Stephan, senior, Bellingham
WHY HE’S #5: Stephan was the Bayhawks’ leader not only in almost every statistical category but in competitiveness, which helped drive Bellingham to its best finish in years. The athletic 6-foot guard could drive inside or shoot from long distance, averaging nearly 17 points a game. And his 2.3 steals a game helped him set the school’s season and career records in thefts. He was a first-team all-Northwest Conference pick and was chosen to play in the all-state seniors game.
COACH BRAD McKAY: “Wyatt was our do-everything guy. He played at a high level on both ends of the floor. He was a special player when he had the ball in his hands and made everyone around him better players. He was a joy to coach and an intentional leader in our program. We are really going to miss him for what he did on and off the court for us.”
