Athlete of the Week
Boys Basketball - Braley Spitz - He has been super coachable and can always be depended on to come off the bench with energy and effort. Braley is willing to do the dirty work, and is quickly developing into a crucial role this year. Keep it up.
The girls bball athlete of the week Is Ava LaBarge. Without her leadership and game knowledge, we would be a different team. She played around 60 minutes this weekend and was a key component of both offense and defense. Keep it up, Ava!
