Congratulations to Centralia's Julian Crenshaw for being voted SBLive’s Washington High School Athlete of the Week for Feb. 3-Feb. 8!

Crenshaw hasn't met a pile of heavy things he hasn't enjoyed lifting. And the Tigers' top powerlifter reigned supreme at the Wolverine Classic, totaling a career-best 1,420 pounds on three lifts to dominate the 220-pound division. He went 600 pounds on the dead lift; 505 on the squat and 315 on the bench.

Crenshaw received 43.7% of the vote, beating out Ellensburg's Garrett Marrs, who finished second with 33.1%.
