One current Husky and another who is on her way to campus this fall were both honored today in Snohomish County's Everett Herald as finalists for the newspaper's Man and Woman of the Year In Sports.

UW volleyball sophomore Bianca Rowland and women's soccer signee Lindsey Bos were listed as two of the four finalists for the annual women's award, which was given to world champion tae-kwondo athlete Danielle Pelham from Everett.

Rowland (Lynnwood, Wash.) played in 30 matches last seson and set a new UW school record for hitting percentage, which led the Pac-10 and ranked third nationally. She also led the team in blocks and was a second-team All-America by Volleyball Magazine.

Bos, a native of Snohomish, Wash., led Archbishop Murphy to an undefeated soccer season and was the state Class 2A player of the year. She finished the season with 15 goals and 23 assists and is one of a talented class of incoming freshmen for the UW women's soccer program.
