East’s Ky Buell and Sheridan’s Sam Lecholat Honored by MaxPreps
Cheyenne East senior Ky Buell and Sheridan junior Sam Lecholat were chosen recently as the Wyoming basketball Players of the Year by Maxpreps.com.
The website chose to honor a player in all 50 states and the District of Columbia now that the 2019-20 season has concluded, some of which were shortened by COVID-19, like Wyoming.
