WRESTLING: David Friend
“David is 13 and 3 on the season. He works hard during practice. If he notices someone has more laps to do, he will run with them. He is always trying to improve skills to make himself better.”
GIRLS INDOOR TRACK: Morgan Koller
“Morgan has tremendously lowered her times from last year in each of her events: the 300 meter and the 600 meter races. She continues to get better each week and has been learning to run the longer races where she has her best shot of reaching sectionals.”
BOYS INDOOR TRACK: Nick Johnson
“In only his first season of indoor track, Nick has already broken key times of 13 minutes in the 2 mile and 6 minutes in the mile. Nick works hard everyday in practice and in the weight room. He continues to get better each week.”

“Gary has increased his average by over 10 pins during the month. His current average is 160 and has high games of 203, 202, and 199 throughout the season. He is dedicated to his craft and works very hard.”
