Our Male Athlete of the Week is Ames Thornton! Coach says "Ames brings leadership, energy, and a relentless work ethic every day. He pushes himself to improve and makes the people around him better, both on and off the field."

Great job Ames! First you were the Student of the Month and now Athlete of the Week. Keep it up! #TheBulldogWay

Our Female Athlete of the Week is Kayla Davis!!! Coach says "This week volleyball would like to nominate Kayla Davis for being encouraging to her teammates. Kayla is always cheerful and positive at volleyball. She cheers for teammates while she is waiting on the bench to go in and in the stands while other teams are playing. Kayla gives credit to who deserves it but doesn't get enough credit herself for being such an amazing young lady."


Great job, Kayla!!! #TheBulldogWay

Spirit Week is coming up next week!!! #TheBulldogWay

Our Female Athlete of the Week is Kindall Mitchell! Coach says "Kindall Mitchell is the volleyball Athlete of the Week. Kindall shows great teamwork on and off the court. She is encouraging to everyone, 7th and 8th graders alike. Kindall's bubbly personality helps keep the team calm in demanding game situations. She celebrates her teammates successes on the court and is encouraging to them when they are going into the game. Kindall is reliable and committed to working hard. She communicates with peers and coaches on and off of the court. Not all athletes are willing to help others but Kindall is. Time after time she steps up without being asked and shows genuine kindness. Kindall is a great example of what a great teammate looks like. "

Great job, Kindall! We are so proud of you. #TheBulldogWay

Our Male Athlete of the week is Devin Mitchell. Devin was a game-changer on Thursday night, coming up with multiple interceptions and helping lead the Bulldogs to a huge defensive battle victory over Labette County! His relentless work in practice, leadership on the field, and strong performance in the classroom make him the total package. Keep shining, Devin! #TheBulldogWay
