Gonzaga Prep Duo, Mt. Spokane Slugger Lead GSL Baseball All-League Honors for Spring 2026

The crack of the bat has faded from Washington State's diamond, but the echoes of greatness still resonate as the Spring 2026 all-league baseball teams have been unveiled for the Greater Spokane League (GSL) and other competitive Eastern Washington conferences. This year's selections are a testament to the incredible talent, dedication, and grit displayed by prep athletes across the region, with stars like Gonzaga Prep's Anthony Karis and Dylan Croall, and Mt. Spokane's Braeden Parker earning top honors in the GSL 4A/3A ranks.

It was a season of standout performances, and the GSL 4A/3A MVP title justly went to Gonzaga Prep senior infielder Anthony Karis. Karis consistently delivered clutch hits and exceptional defense, proving himself the heart of the Bullpups' lineup. Alongside him, teammate Dylan Croall, a senior pitcher also from Gonzaga Prep, was named Pitcher of the Year for his dominant performances on the mound, baffling hitters with precision and power. The offensive fireworks weren't limited to one school, however, as Mt. Spokane senior Braeden Parker earned the 4A/3A Offensive MVP award, leaving a trail of extra-base hits in his wake. University High School's Coach Kevin May was recognized for his leadership, receiving Coach of the Year honors.

GSL 4A/3A First Team Talent Shines

The GSL 4A/3A First Team roster reads like a who's who of rising baseball stars. Lewis and Clark saw two seniors, Brody Bugbee and KJ Kinkade, make the cut, showcasing their consistent contributions. University High was well-represented with juniors Leyton Hurley, Luca Longo, and senior Marco Longo solidifying their infield and outfield. Ridgeline seniors Mikey Macall and Caden Andreas also earned well-deserved spots for their impressive play. Joining Karis and Croall from Gonzaga Prep were senior teammates Jackson Mott and Jacob Wilson, highlighting the Bullpups' depth of talent. Other notable first-team selections included Central Valley's senior Tyson Blake, Ferris sophomores Holt Dissmore and Colton Smith, East Valley sophomore Kyler Goll, and Mt. Spokane senior Connor Moffitt. The future looks bright with so many underclassmen already establishing themselves.

2A and Northeast Leagues Celebrate Their MVPs

The talent pool runs deep across all classifications. In the GSL 2A league, West Valley senior infielder Ollie Spencer was named MVP, a testament to his all-around excellence on the field. Pullman's Coach Kevin Agnew, whose squad consistently performs at a high level, was honored as Coach of the Year for the 2A division. The GSL 2A First Team featured impressive names such as pitchers Brody Barnett, a sophomore from Pullman, and Carson Gaumer, a sophomore from West Valley, alongside catcher Tavish Carruthers, a sophomore from North Central. Sophomore utility player Tucker Green from Clarkston also made a significant impact.

Moving to the Northeast A League, Lakeside's senior Cy Reeves and Colville's senior Jet Bateman shared Co-MVP honors, showcasing the competitive spirit of their league. Lakeside's Coach Tim Klein was named Coach of the Year, guiding his team with expertise.
