The athlete chosen for this week is a player on the freshman boy’s basketball team. He shows an amazing amount of effort and love for basketball both on and off the court.
“Riley [Sakurada] works really hard at practice and during games. He always gives 100%. He’s usually one of our first or second players off the bench during games. Even though he’s not a big guy, we can put him in any position and he plays the best he can. He plays hard and always puts himself in the right position. He’s an all-around good basketball player,” said freshman coach Austin Mayo.
The team has six games left, averaging two per week. The next game is on Friday, January 30.
