West Seattle's Young Guns Are Setting Records and the Whole Damn State Just Noticed
Yo, Seattle fam! Big news dropping straight outta West Seattle High School. On the last day of school for Seattle Public Schools, the Wildcats are not just graduating, they're stepping into the next chapter as legends! We're talking major honors for seriously dedicated student-athletes, the kind of grit that makes you proud to bleed green and blue. WSHS Athletic Director Corey Sorenson made it official, celebrating these incredible kids rocking special athletic-honor cords at tonight’s commencement. It's a victory lap!
WSHS Record Books Got Ripped Apart by These Grads
You wanna talk about setting the bar? These Wildcat seniors aren't just graduating; they're leaving their names etched in the school record books. Mack Rysmeus crushed the 200 Freestyle Relay. And get this: the 4x400 Relay squad of Will Frederick, Marcus Ramsey, and Aidan Murray? Absolute speed demons, owning that record! Layla Ho is a double threat, dominating both the 4x200 and 4x400 Relays, which is just insane! Jeremiah O’Keefe, another aquatic beast, holds records in both the 200 Freestyle and 400 Freestyle Relays. Shoutout to Nathan Boehmer, also a 200 Freestyle Relay record holder. These folks aren't just athletes; they're history-makers in the Emerald City!

State Champs and Unstoppable Forces
If breaking school records impressed you, wait for the state champions walking that stage tonight! Lincoln Scott, Cody Buehring, and Cody McCall brought home state titles for baseball in '24. That's a powerhouse lineup! And the Unified Soccer team? Unstoppable! Asher Rosenstock, Grace Carroll, Ellie Miller, and Izzy McKamey were all part of that state-winning squad. Don't forget Jonas Darragh and Jaykel Warwick, also Unified Soccer state champs. The real showstopper? Molly Combs, a state champion in Bowling and the first individual MetroLeague State Champion in league and WSHS history! That's legacy, folks, pure and simple.
The Golden Wildcats: Unmatched Dedication
Beyond records and state titles, we celebrate the Golden Wildcat Award. This isn't just about winning; it's about pure dedication. The award goes to student-athletes who went above and beyond, competing in three sports during their senior year. WSHS calls it one of their highest honors, recognizing exceptional commitment and perseverance. That multi-sport grind? It shows passion and grit translating far beyond the field or court. These are the kinds of leaders who embody everything we love about Seattle sports.
So, to all the graduating Wildcats honored tonight, massive congratulations from Seattle On Tap! You've set an incredible standard for future WSHS athletes, proving hard work, perseverance, and school pride pay off. What's next for these talented individuals? Whatever it is, they're gonna crush it, just like they did for the green and blue. The future of Seattle sports just got brighter because of these young legends. Keep an eye on these names, they're just getting started!
