I'm not sure who all votes on this besides Highlands' staff, but our household will take it! As a personal side note, Nate Darpel is on the list. He deserves to be on any list for NKYs best defenders. I want to wish him a speedy recovery. He's had horrible luck with injuries but has the greatest attitude that I can recall from an athlete dealing with setbacks. He's a tremendous person, and a great player, and we hope to see him at full strength soon.
