On May 22, Marysville Getchell Boys Basketball Coach Mr. Corby Schuh was presented with an award from the United States Army! Corby Schuh was recognized for his hard work and dedication to student-athletes by the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) for their #SalutetoCoaches campaign, presented by the U.S. Army. Local representatives of the Army were in attendance to present Corby with this award at the school-wide assembly.

The campaign post read: "Corby has created an atmosphere of integrity. Not only does he create a community of young athletes that are respectful, but also supports his community with different events to engage players of all levels." The post continues, "He personifies many qualities of the U.S. Army values and helps his players achieve those values as well." Congratulations, Coach Schuh, for this prestigious recognition and award!
