Each week throughout the school year, the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) recognizes twelve varsity athletes, a male and a female from each of the six classifications, who exhibited an outstanding performance for the previous week.

Ian Oxnevad, a Senior, from Shorewood High School was nominated by a community member and selected by WIAA staff as one of the Athletes of the Week for achievements in Baseball.

Oxnevad pitched his third consecutive shut-out, in a 3-0 victory over Ferndale on 4/2. He gave up one hit, walked zero, and struck out 11. The one hit was a bunt single in the seventh inning and was the only base runner allowed.

In recognition of their accomplishment, each Athlete of the Week winner receives a congratulatory letter from WIAA Executive Director, Mike Colbrese, a commemorative WIAA State Athlete of the Week t-shirt, and a certificate. Winners are also posted to the WIAA website
