HUMBOLDT — A trio of Humboldt basketball players earned Tri-Valley League honors after their season wrapped up last weekend.
Trey Sommer took Tri-Valley League First Team honors in his senior season. He was joined on the first team by Cherryvale’s Stetson Schafer, Erie’s Ethan Dillinger, Caney Valley’s Colt Hightower and Erie’s Reid Duff.
Sommer led the Cubs with 17 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.3 steals per game and a 62% shooting mark from the floor.
Sommer, who eclipsed the 1,000-point threshold this season for his high school career, will head to Emporia State University in the fall to play football.
Cubs Sam Hull and Colden Cook earned Tri-Valley League second team honors. They were joined by Cherryvale’s Brock Robertson, Fredonia’s Joel Dutton and Zac Ramsey and Eureka’s Trey Howard.
Hull, a junior, and Cook, a sophomore, both played like seniors.
Hull averaged 13.3 points, 5.6 rebounds and one block per game and had everyone’s jaw drop with his monstrous slam dunks in transition. He also rolled in the game-winner in Humboldt’s Class 3A substate playoff victory over Wichita Trinity.
Cook averaged 13.9 points and a team-high 2.4 assists.
The Tri-Valley League honorable mentions were Fredonia’s Jeremiah Couch and Caney Valley’s Ben Matthews.
