#9
Nolan Wright, sophomore, Sehome
WHY HE’S #9: There was no fiercer competitor in the league than Wright, who even as a sophomore took the leadership reins for the inexperienced Mariners. The 5-foot-10 point guard led Sehome with 11.3 points and nearly 5 assists a game and despite his size was one of the top rebounding guards in the league averaging more than 5 boards a game. Toss in his aggressive defense and it was no wonder the Northwest Conference coaches voted him to the all-league second team.
COACH BRAD JACKSON: “Nolan was very consistent and in my opinion, was one of the better point guards in our league. He shouldered virtually all of the ball-handling duties, drew the toughest backcourt defensive assignment, all while leading Sehome in scoring and assists. He is a true QB leader.”
