The last Prep Sports Weekly of the 2023-24 high school sports season; Monday, June 10, 2024. We wrap-up the last of our spring sports state champions with Archbishop Murphy’s Cole Balin, who won the Class 2A state boys tennis singles title. Then a trio of track champions: Grace Academy’s Pierce Hess (100, 200, 400 meters); King’s Anna Hoke and Coach Rod Wilcox (Anna was a member of the 4×400 relay team, and the King’s girls won the state 1A track & field team title); and Lake Stevens’ David “Boogie” Brown and teammate Stephen Lee Jr. (David won the 4A 110 hurdles; they were both members of the Lake Stevens state champion football team in the fall). We end the show with our “Exit Interview” with long-time Arlington head boys basketball coach Nick Brown who is retiring from coaching the Eagles; he’s joined by his replacement (and former player) Drew Bryson.
