Four basketball players named to all-league teams

Four Outlaws basketball players were selected to all-league teams after their defeat in the first round of the state playoffs.

The all-league roster includes Ross Erickson, Tyler Miller, Drew Harrison and Levi Rowe.

Erickson earned first team all-league honors. Ross, at 6-feet-5-inches, was a versatile player for the Outlaws and played at point guard, wing and at post. Erickson led the team in scoring, steals, rebounds and assists.

"Ross did a very good job for us at point guard," said Coach Jake Rothauge. "The point guard is a tough job and Ross did great setting up the offense and getting his teammates involved. Aside from that, Ross played other positions where he was able to score, which opened up the floor for us."

Tyler Miller and Drew Harrison were both third team all-league selections.

Miller, at 6-feet-4-inches, was the Outlaws' big man and played at the post position.

"Tyler was our anchor inside and because of him we were able to get inside looks at the basket. Tyler has a tremendous desire to compete and win and in all the big games he played his best," said Rothauge.

Harrison, at 6-feet-4-inches, was also a versatile player for the Outlaws and played at post, wing and at point guard.

"Drew's biggest asset was that we could put him anywhere and we knew he'd do a great job. I'm most proud of Drew because he was the one we put on the other team's best player every game. He did a great job in that role and really stepped up on defense," said Rothauge.

Levi Rowe earned honorable mention and played at the wing position.
