Doug Russell and Hunter Franco named to the Star Times for Fall 2016

Three times a year, The Seattle Times honors the best athletes and coaches in Seattle-area high-school team sports with its Star Times all-area teams. The fall selections are for football, volleyball and girls’ soccer.

Seattle Times staffers and freelancers select Star Times all-area honorees from athletes in King and Snohomish counties, plus schools in the Metro and WesCo conferences.

Hunter Franco, an unsung hero, made the big plays to help lead the Irish through an undefeated league season to win O’Dea’s first Metro League title since 2013. He also scored 11 touchdowns on offense.

Doug Russell, a two-time Star Times selection, finished as the Metro League’s Mountain Division’s Defensive Lineman of the Year.

Congratulations to both these young men!  You make us proud!  GO IRISH!
