West Linn’s McKayla Castro and Kendall Atwood accomplished a lot in 2025.

They led the Lions to a Three Rivers League championship, the No. 6 seed in the Class 6A state playoffs, and eventually, a berth in the state quarterfinals.

In response, they were honored on the all-TRL first team, and later, with berths on 2025 all-state teams. Castro – a senior third baseman and the TRL Player of the Year – was named to the 6A second team, while Atwood – a junior outfielder – won a berth on the all-state third team.
