High school, college, it matters not — The Big Hurt and awards just go together.
Having recovered from a devastating injury last season, Central Washington University red-shirt sophomore offensive lineman Nick Streubel was rewarded Wednesday when he was tabbed as a First-Team All-League selection.
The Coupeville High School grad, an All-League and All-State player in his prep days, was one of 10 Wildcats honored by Great Northwest Athletic Conference coaches.
Central Washington rolled to an 11-0 mark, captured its first league title in five seasons, and is a #1 seed heading into the NCAA D-II playoffs.
The Wildcats nabbed four special awards, in addition to their All-Conference picks.
Senior linebacker Kevin Haynes was the Defensive Player of the Year, senior Bo Banner was the Defensive Lineman of the Year and junior transfer quarterback Reilly Hennessey was the Newcomer of the Year.
Topping things off, CWU head coach Ian Shoemaker was hailed as the Coach of the Year.
In a league dominated by juniors and seniors, Streubel was one of only four sophomores to be named as a First-Team player.
