Just when you thought it was done, it wasn’t.

Officially putting the very final stamp on the high school baseball season, the Washington State Baseball Coaches Association has named its All-State teams.

And lo and behold, there’s a Wolf at the highest level.

Pitcher Ben Etzell, who became the first Coupeville High School athlete to win a league MVP award in the 1A/2A Cascade Conference in any sport, was named as a First-Team selection for the A/B squad.

The recent CHS grad was the second Wolf honored for the 2013-2014 school year.

Senior lineman Nick Streubel was named a Second-Team All-State player during the football season.

Cam Walker of Naches Valley was picked as the A/B player of the year and South Whidbey’s Colton Sterba was named as a Second-Team pick.

Three other Cascade Conference players — Colton Sandhofer of Cedarcrest, Riley Larsen of Granite Falls and Ryan Dorney of ATM — were named First-Team picks on the 2A squad.
