Congratulations to the December Athletes of the Month:

Boys Basketball – Senior Ben Wallace, Ben stepped up big in December in many different ways including his play on the court and his leadership on & off the floor. Ben led many stats throughout the month, and has pushed teammates in practice to work on areas of improvement and work harder in practice to get better.

 

Scholastic Bowl – Junior Alexis Wike-Alexis has really stepped up and leads our JV team in tossups by a wide margin.  Alexis has also improved tremendously by working on her own to better herself.  Alexis has stepped in and got some varsity experience as well.  Categories of stretch are geography and literature but has knowledge in other categories as well.

 

 Girls Basketball – Freshman Lily Enger.  Lily brings a great work ethic every day to practice and games.  She is willing to take on new challenges and has competed well at the varsity level. 

 

 Cheer -  Senior Ava Jamison.  Ava has served as cheer captain the past 2 seasons and does an outstanding job.  Her overall maturity and responsibility as a person and cheerleader is beyond what her coach could have ever imagined.
