SNOHOMISH – Snohomish High School basketball star Jon Brockman didn’t waste much time before confirming the decision he made public on Oct. 5.

Brockman signed an NCAA national letter of intent with the University of Washington at 7:01 today – one minute after the opening of the early signing period, which runs through Nov. 17.

“I should have started a little earlier,” Brockman said with a laugh.

Brockman’s father, Gordy, and Snohomish coach Len Bone were among those who joined Brockman as he officially accepted a basketball scholarship from the University of Washington.

“It was pretty much over – I knew I was gonna go (to Washington) already,” Brockman said, “but it was nice to just have it over with and just feel it’s kind of the final word.”
