Blaine athletes make all conference baseball team

By Oliver Lazenby

Three Blaine baseball players were selected to All-Northwest Conference team by league coaches.

Sophomore Chase Abshere was selected all conference first team third-baseman, and junior Jalen Kortlever was named all conference first team short stop. Both Abshere and Kortlever are powerful hitters and talented infielders who made few errors in 2017.

The coaches selected Blaine junior Kai Nagle for the all conference second team as catcher. Nagle, who also pitches, learned the position last season. Borderites head coach Sean Linville called him one of the hardest working players on the team.
