Colby, who played at mid- field, scored seven goals in league for the Outlaws, and also tallied four assists. Coach Rob Jensen said, “Colby is a very talented player, and had to play mul- tiple positions this year to meet the needs of the team. He led the team in scor- ing, and was a leader in assists, even though he played half the year at center back.” Asher also played at mid- field, and scored four goals and recorded one assist. This year marked the second time Bachtold was selected first- team all-league. Last year he was also a second team all- state pick. “Asher dominated the middle of the field and was a huge defensive catalyst for our team,” said Jensen. “Honestly, we would have never been able to get where we did without Asher.” Keaton (midfield) scored two goals for the Outlaws and posted two assists. “Keaton made a huge jump this summer, from being a role player to an impact player,” stated Jensen. “His work rate is top-notch, and his attitude is always on point.” Kinnon Rutherford and Willie Stewart were second- team all-league selections, and both played defense for the Outlaws. Jensen said, “After a few games of giving up lots of goals, Kinnon become our go-to at center back. We gave up 10 goals in the first two games, and only 15 goals the next 11 games. Kinnon’s a smart player, has a great sense for the game, and was a huge impact player for us. “Willie quietly does his job,” said Jensen. “He rarely is out of position, and almost never gets beat as an outside defender. His leadership role increased this year, and along with Asher and Keaton, [he] was one of the team captains.” Rounding out the selections were Samson Henneous (junior) and Ultra Nillratanothai (senior) who were honorable mention. Henneous played at goal- keeper, recorded five shut- outs during league, and only gave up one goal per game. “Samson improved dra- matically last year after step- ping into a very challenging position,” said Jensen. “He did a great job and grew as a leader.” Nillratanothai played at midfield and scored four goals during the season. Ultra is from Thailand and joined the team after his late arrival. CHEF-CREATED FOOD ils a t k c o C y t l ia c e p S l a in Orig “ Service was fast and friendly.
