This month, Nick Deller, a senior at Mountlake Terrace High School, has appeared in a 30-second commercial on FSN that highlights his achievements in sports, school and the community. Deller, an All-Wesco South Second Team linebacker for the Hawks football team in 2008, received on Jan. 30 the Farmers 2008-2009 Student Athlete Citizen Award.
One perk of the honor – sponsored by Farmers Insurance and FSN – is appearing in the commercial, which will air at least through the end of the month. The commercial is scheduled to air on FSN near halftime of Thursday’s Oregon State University versus University of Washington men’s basketball game.
Nominated for the award by Mountlake Terrace head football coach Tony Umayam, Deller led the Hawks in tackles, tackle assists and interceptions this past fall. Deller is an Eagle Scout who has a 3.95 grade-point average and has done a variety of community service, including cleaning up parks and volunteering at nursing homes.
This is the latest in an array of honors for Deller. In December he won a $1,000 scholarship at the annual Snohomish County Football Officials Hall of Fame banquet in Everett.
