Kimberly’s Ellie Stastny named Idaho 3A Soccer Player of the Year
KIMBERLY, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) — Kimberly’s Ellie Stastny has been named the Idaho 3A state soccer Player of the Year.
The senior forward was incredible this season, leading Kimberly to an undefeated 3A High Desert Conference Championship for the first time, as well as a 20-2 overall record.
The bulldog also finished as the state runner-up.
Stastny told KMVT she’s happy to get a prestigious individual award after a great season for Kimberly.
“It was really surprising, I worked really hard this season and so to get this recognition is an honor,” Stastny said. “To have this achievement is great and to be able to share with my team is even better.”
Stastny recorded over 30 goals this season to go along with 15 assists.
Her drive for greatness this season for her and her squad was built stemming from the end of last year’s campaign.
“Coming off the season, it fell a little short last year but going into this season everyone on the team really wanted it, we knew we could do it we just had to connect and put it together,” Stastny said. “Coming into the season we knew what needed to get done.”
Stastny along with her sister Ellie are also standout golfers.
So, whether it’s soccer or golf, she has a bright future ahead of her.

Cold front comes into Idaho after a rainy week
It was a rainy week with intense showers passing through the Treasure Valley. Sunday is expected to be clear but cooler weather and more precipitation is on the way.
I got to capture a phenomenal rainbow coming into the station today after some of the rain we saw on Saturday clear out.
The start of this wee will see some more rain on the way for Boise. Twin Fall will see their precipitation arrive between Monday and Tuesday with chances of rain snow/ mixes and possible accumulation.
A cold front will move in this week dropping temperatures. 40’s will turn into 30’s for the Magic and Treasure Valley’s. Mountains will expect a cool down as well. Thanksgiving is looking like a clear day though for most parts of Idaho.
Colder is coming this week, make sure to bundle up!

Idaho teen, 18, arrested after dead newborn found in hospital’s Safe Haven baby box
An Idaho teen is behind bars after a dead baby was found in a hospital drop-off box meant for the anonymous surrender of newborns.
Angel Newberry, 18, was arrested in Twin Falls more than a month after medical officials found the dead baby girl wrapped in a blanket with her placenta still attached in the Safe Haven Baby Box at the Grove Creek Medical Center in Blackfoot, authorities announced Friday.
“The Safe Haven Baby Box is intended to safely and anonymously allow custodial parents to surrender a newborn under 30 days old without legal repercussions, provided the child is unharmed,” the Blackfoot Police Department said in a social media post.
“Unfortunately, the placement of a harmed or deceased infant is not protected under the system of Idaho law.”
Hospital staff immediately responded to an alarm on Oct. 13 indicating a baby had been placed in the box — making the disturbing discovery that the newborn had been dead long before she was abandoned, according to Safe Haven Baby Boxes.
Idaho law only allows for the surrender of an infant who is unharmed.
“We are heartbroken,” Safe Haven Baby Box founder Monica Kelsey said last month.
“Let this be clear: this is an illegal, deadly abandonment.”
The accused teen was charged with failing to report a death to law enforcement officials and the coroner, police said.
Additional charges could be filed as the investigation into the circumstances surrounding the baby’s death is ongoing.
She is being held at Bingham County Jail.
