Congratulations to our Athletes of the Month for August!
👟Erika joined the XC team as a freshman last year. She was shy, quiet, and unsure of herself. At the first invite of the year, she bested her time on this course by over 4 minutes from the previous season. She is now our team's top runner in both ability and work ethic. She has also grown as a leader by being more vocal and supporting all of her teammates during workouts and runs. Erika is the type of athlete you can build a culture of excellence around as she models the ideal template for a cross country athlete. - Coach Haubs
🏐Ivan plays extremely hard and communicates very well with his teammates. He is respectful, leads by example, and is always willing to help our younger athletes. Ivan is taking care of business in school as well. Overall, his effort, leadership, communication, respect for others, and willingness to help his teammates make him very deserving of Athlete of the Month. - Coach Eid
🏐On the court, Illi gives everything she has and is always looking for ways to improve. She is coachable, applies feedback, and has grown tremendously in her skills, confidence, and knowledge of the game. Her determination is one of the qualities I admire most—when she sets her mind to something, she is willing to put in the work to accomplish it. As we begin her senior season as a three-time varsity player, I am excited to see what she will accomplish on the court. I am proud of the athlete she has become, but even more proud of the young woman she has grown to be. She truly represents what we strive for in our program: Courage is how we compete. Character is who we become. - Coach Bernal
