Prep Notebook | Kennedy keeper picks Michigan

Kennedy High School goalkeeper Chris Blais will play men's soccer for the University of Michigan next fall.

Blais was the goalkeeper on the last spring's Seattle Times Star Times team of players in King and Snohomish counties. He had seven shutouts and led his team to the Class 3A state semifinals.

Blais made the oral commitment after visiting Michigan last weekend. He said he liked the school's athletic program and its facilities. He was a guest at the Michigan-Michigan State football game.

"Seeing a football game played in front of about 115,000 is fun," he said.

He also made official visits to Syracuse and Vermont and an informal visit to Michigan State.

Blais, who is 6 feet, is one of the area's top two-sport athletes and led the Kennedy basketball team in scoring last year with a 13.4 average.

His non-school soccer team is Emerald City, coached by Brian Schmetzer, who also coaches the Seattle Sounders.

Eighth-grade football player hurt

KENT — An eighth grader at Tahoma Middle School was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center Thursday night after collapsing at the end of a football game in Kent, district officials said.

The boy, whose name wasn't released, had played in the game, said Kevin Patterson, spokesman for Tahoma School District. Tahoma's eighth-grade team was playing Kent's Mattson Middle School.

Patterson didn't have details of the boy's injuries.
