ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Jack McDonald, Northern Lakes American Legion

The lefty throwing McDonald struck out seven and scattered three hits in a complete game, and drove in the winning run with a single in the bottom of the seventh inning to lift the Mountaineers to a 2-1 victory over the Coeur d’Alene Lumbermen in American Legion (independent) baseball last Friday at Lakeland High. “He’s my big-game guy; he lives for those moments,” Northern Lakes coach Bryce Johnson said. “I knew if we got to him, he’d give us a chance to win it.”
