Athletes of the week are Jakson Hughes, Breon Lewis, Jason Allison, Zakiya Larkins, and Ileana Rodrequies. During the Volleyball team’s district win, Illeana and Zakiya had their personal best games. Illena had 16 digs, with an outstanding serve receive, and Zakiya achieved a personal record of 11 kills.

“Breon started the Cougars scoring by returning an interception for a touchdown. He led the offensive attack, catching 4 passes for 135 yards, hauling 2 touchdowns, playing a huge role in leading the Cougars to victory,” Coach Hicks stated. Breon has been a valuable part of this year’s offense, leading the wide receiver with 729 receiving yards.

Jakson’s performance on both sides of the ball has been excellent this year. Jakson is an integral part of an offense that had over 500 yards this past Friday. He graded out at 95% and performed perfectly in pass protection. Defensively, Jakson had 6 tackles and dominated the line of scrimmage.

Jason Allison performed greatly on his last cross country meet. “Not only is Jason the leader of the cross country team, but his work ethic also is outstanding and he was our top runner at District. He will be competing at regionals on the 25th”. Congratulations to all of the Cougar athletes that were granted Cougar’s “Athlete of the Week”.
