Ryley Johnson  Under Armour Men’s Soccer Player of the Week – Week 2

Ryley Johnson, Lynnwood HS / Lynnwood, WA., scored a hat trick in Highline’s 4-0 win over Spokane. Johnson has tallied goals in all three of Highline’s matches this season as the defending champion Thunderbirds have outscored three of last season’s power teams (Whatcom, Portland & Spokane) nine goals to one in pre-league competition.

“Ryley was very efficient in front of goal against Spokane and scored 3 great goals,” said Thunderbird head coach Steve Mohn. “He was a threat everytime he was on the ball in attacking areas. He was very intelligent with his running and found himself in good attacking areas and was able to finish off the plays.”
