High School Athletes of the Week
HS Soccer
Co Captain Lincoln Hamm scored 2 goals in 3 games in the Greenville Round Robin Tournament. He netted the game winner from the penalty spot vs Greenville and added a late goal vs Salem. He never came off the field and was instrumental in our midfield.
HS Volleyball
For the volleyball team's athlete of the week.
Varsity: Chloe Nordmann (OH/S) (Senior)
-Chloe was chosen for her excellent work ethic and dedication. During our New Athens tournament Chloe excelled in being a true leader towards her teammates and to the starters on the court. Chloe noticed when things weren't working she stepped in and took charge by making adjustments on the court to help gain an advantage. This weekend also showed Chloe excellent hitting and serving abilities. Even in practice Chloe comes in with a great attitude that is infectious to the team.
-Something that stands out from Chloe again is her leadership. Whenever adversity strikes, Chloe embraces it with problem solving abilities. As well as trying to keep her teammates in a positive mind set.
JV: Quameisha Coates (OH) (Junior)
-Meisha was chosen for her hardwork and dedication. It truly has shown within our last two games against Greenville and Patoka. Meisha led the JV team with 5 aces in the Patoka game. Meisha comes into practice ready to work and improve her skills.
-Something that stands out from Meisha is her positivity towards her teammates. Whenever the team is down Meisha is always the one to bring laughter and energy back into the team when things are tough.
Here are our Junior High Athletes of the Week
My players of the week are 8th graders Hope Cox and Aleyda Bennett
Hope #12 is primarily our center fielder. She has a great eye for fly balls. During our game against Breese last week she caught 2 hard hit balls in centerfield to help hold the other team from scoring more runs. Her batting average is 417% with on base percentage of 475%. She brings a positive attitude to the team and cares about her teammates. Hope also hit a home run this season as well. She will continue to do great things for softball, but more importantly she is making a difference in her continued encouragement of others.
Aleyda #30 is our 2nd baseman. She is new to the position this year, but does a great job at fielding balls and making plays. Aleyda has speed when it comes to running bases. She is also a smart base runner. This year Aleyda realized that she is a switch hitter. She can hit from the left side as well as the right side. Aleyda has great leadership qualities. She is an encourager to all of her teammates and is a coachable player. Aleyda is a lot of fun to have on the team. She makes her teammates laugh, but works hard for the Greyhound softball team as well.
JH Baseball
Thomas Thacker was our leading hitter for the team last week. Thomas’ average has continued to climb as the season has gone on. Thomas has been very coachable, has been to every practice this year, and has worked hard. Thomas has played right field and first base this year. He’s been a good team leader.
Henry Tilk was our leading pitcher this week. He has done a great job throwing strikes and giving our team a chance to win each time he has pitched. Henry has also done a pretty good job at the plate. He has played numerous positions this year and has been a very good team player.
