Blaine baseball standouts Evan Yates and Josh Cochran have been named to the All-Northwest Conference Second Team for their performances during the 2025 season. Yates was honored as a catcher, while Cochran earned recognition as a pitcher.
Yates had a consistent and productive year behind the plate and at bat, finishing the season with a .400 batting average. His presence in the lineup provided a steady offensive spark for the Borderites all year long.
Cochran was a dominant force on the mound, appearing in eight games and recording four wins. He tallied an impressive 67 strikeouts while allowing just seven earned runs and walking only seven batters. His command and competitiveness helped anchor Blaine's pitching staff throughout the spring.
Both players played key roles in the Borderites' season and their All-NWC recognition is a well-earned testament to their impact.
