Tyree Stingley, a junior at Page High School, was named the 3A North Boys’ Basketball Player of the Year. The 3A North Player of the Year is voted on by all the boys basketball coaches in 3A North.     Stingley, who plays guard post for the Sand Devils, had a standout season. He was the team’s leading scorer and in January he scored his 1,000th career point, a feat very few basketball players achieve. It was made all the more remarkable that he reached that milestone halfway through his junior year.
