(UNDATED) – EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE NAMED OUR ATHLETE’S OF THE YEAR AT A SPECIAL BANQUET LAST WEEK, WE’LL CONTINUE TO HONOR ATHLETE’S OF THE WEEK THRU THE END OF THE STATE MEETS AND TOURNAMENTS.

THERE WERE TWO ATHLETE’S THAT COULDN’T BE OVERLOOKED AT DISTRICT TRACK MEETS LAST WEEKEND.   FIRST OUR FEMALE KSEN/K96—BOZEMAN TROPHY ATHLETE OF THE WEEK, SOPHOMORE ARIA JOHNSON OF FAIRFIELD.

THE YOUNG ATHLETE BECAME A SOLID CONTRIBUTOR TO FAIRFIELD’S RUN TO THE STATE TOURNAMENT IN VOLLEYBALL AND THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN BASKETBALL AND NOW IS GETTING THINGS DONE ON THE TRACK.

AT THE 1B DISTRICT TRACK MEET LAST WEEKEND, JOHNSON WON BOTH HURDLE EVENTS.  HER BEST TIME IN THE 100M HURDLES AT 16.79 PLACES HER AMONG THE TOP 8 IN CLASS B IN THE STATE IN THAT EVENT.

OUR MALE ATHLETE OF THE WEEK WAS A THREE EVENT WINNER AT THE 10C DISTRICT MEET.  JR. COLTON CURRY OF VALIER PICKED UP WINS IN THE 100, 400 AND HIGH JUMP.  HIS LEAP OF 6-2 IN THE HIGH JUMP PLACES HIM AMONG ONLY 3 CLASS C HIGH JUMPERS IN THE STATE WHO HAVE CLEARED THAT HEIGHT.

CURRY IS ALSO AN ALL-STATE CALIBER BASKETBALL PLAYER AND AN ALL-CONFERENCE RECEIVER ON THE VALIER FOOTBALL TEAM.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR KSEN/K96—BOZEMAN TROPHY ATHLETE’S OF THE WEEK…..SOPHOMORE ARIA JOHNSON OF FAIRFIELD AND JR. COLTON CURRY OF VALIER.  THE ATHLETE OF THE WEEK IS SPONSORED LOCALLY BY McDONALD’S IN CUT BANK.   McDONALD’S HONORS OUR ATHLETES WITH TWO FREE VALUE MEALS EACH.
