Rio had previously been acknowledged by Steelheads coaches as Top Midfielder, Best Goal, and Most Inspirational (Honorable Mention.)
Defender Cade Cooke (Kamiak HS, Everett CC) was voted Rookie of the Year for his tremendous debut season of teamwork, defense, calm under pressure, long throw ins, and his 2 goals and 3 assists on the attack. He was previously honored by the coaches as Newcomer of the Year.
