Bronwyn has been working hard to always improve her technique and expand her range while singing in lessons. She has also continued to step out of her comfort zone to become a better musician and leader within the choir. She is working on outside musical opportunities and auditions, and she has done a great job of leading by example and being okay with trying new things to continue to always improve. Great job! Mr. Fourniea Athlete of the Week - Amelia Gossman Amelia had an outstanding week with four goals and two assists vs Irondale. Later in the week she recorded one goal and two assists against Cannon Falls. Congratulations Amelia! Teammates of the Week Cheer - Grace VanSande Grace is brand new to Cheer this year. I appreciate her willingness to try something new and be a part of our team for her senior year. She always works hard at practice and cheers loudly during games. Coach Harris Boys Soccer - Xavier Stevermer Xavier has played almost every possible minute this season. He is always giving his all and usually has the task of covering the other team's best player. He continues to push himself to get better every day. Coach Kane Football - Eli Haight Eli is just so consistent, he comes to practice everyday to push himself and his teammates. He wins our traditional 14-minute drill every week! With Eli it's always about having the right mindset, he has a next play mentality and that is why he is having an outstanding year for us. Coach Kesler Girls Tennis - Taylor Elliott Taylor has been integral part of our varsity playing #1 doubles. She has worked hard this season improving her net game and serving. She helped the team win sectionals for the 26th year in a row. Coach Pettengill Girls Soccer - Kiara Haugen Ki has had a great week! As a senior, I have come to rely more and more on Ki. Not only for her leadership as a captain, but for her midfield play as well. She has improved so much just in these past few games. Her confidence is better and she isn't afraid to take on any opponent. Ki has been making more opportunities for our offense as well. She is finding those passing lanes and putting the ball in the net! It's all coming together for her on the field and we love it! So proud of you! Coach Groven Volleyball - Allison Ritter Ali is extremely coachable and willing to do whatever it takes for her team to succeed. She is selfless, determined, and a hard worker! It's so much fun to see Ali's hard work paying off as she continues to improve every week! Coach Larson Cross Country - Braedon Fitzpatrick
Braedon is always willing to lend a helping hand. He never complains about a workout or having to do extra. Thank you Braedon for setting a great example of what it means to be selfless. Coach Gilman Upcoming Events 10/13 Boys Soccer vs Schaeffer Academy
