Players of the Fortnight

This week girls varsity basketball coach Jim Tildsley has selected two players for Player of the Fortnight honors. They are Devon Caveney and Jackie Alois.

“These young ladies are outstanding members of this team,”, said Tildsley. “Not only were they important players on our state championship teams, but as great captains of this year’s team, they consistently give their all on the court, whether it’s in practice or in games. They set great standards for all of their teammates with their leadership, their dedication and their great attitudes. We’re so glad to have them on this year’s team, and both girls have great futures ahead of them.”

Next week’s Townsman will feature an additional nominee from the boys team.
