Coach of Year, Sportsmen of the Year

After three years of league championships, Portland Monarchs coach Aaron Fentress finally earned an award he’s been bypassed for – Coach of the Year – for the Pacific Football League’s inaugural season.
Fentress guided the Monarchs to a perfect season in which they won the Southern Division title and played just one game decided by fewer than three scores.
“It’s wonderful to see him get that award,” team co-owner Heath Wharton said in announcing the honor on behalf of the league. “He’s certainly put the work in to deserve it.”
Along with Coach of the Year, the league announced Team Sportsmanship of the Year, which went to the Grays Harbor Bearcats, who missed the playoffs with a 2-6 record in the Northern Division, but suffered their six losses by an average of less than a touchdown. The Bearcats finished as the only team in the league without a player ejected from a game.
The announcements precede the PFL All-League Team and player honors, which will be decided by Sunday and released on Pacific Football Weekly Monday evening.
The playoffs begin Saturday with four games: Clark County at Kitsap, Yakima at South King, Springfield at the Portland Monarchs and the Portland Raiders at Southern Oregon.
