2A player of the year and 2020 UW commit Sawyer Racanelli to miss senior season with torn ACL

Sawyer Racanelli, a 2020 UW football commit and incoming senior at Hockinson High School, will miss the 2019 season with a torn ACL, his father Josh Racanelli told The Columbian Thursday.

The Brush Prairie, Wash. native suffered a non-contact injury in June during a scrimmage, his father said. Sawyer is expected to have reconstructive surgery next week in Seattle.

The former 2A Washington player of the year powered Hockinson to its second consecutive undefeated season and rushed for five touchdowns while also throwing a touchdown in the championship game vs. Lynden. Racanelli starred at wide receiver and linebacker for the Hawks.
