'He showed leadership qualities from the get-go'

Mavs athlete shines on court and field

MOSES LAKE — Being a leader is nothing new to Moses Lake junior Kyson Thomas. Whether on the football field or the basketball court, Thomas is helping to guide the Mavericks to wins. “Besides just his basketball ability, (he brings) his leadership,” Moses Lake boys basketball Head Coach Jake Hunt said. “I saw that pretty early on when he came up to us as an incoming freshman. I was able to see that over the summer when he was an eighth-grader… He showed leadership qualities from the get-go.” Thomas, who has two older brothers who also played sports at Moses Lake, said that growing up in a competitive environment has allowed him to now reap those benefits.
