Junior Eli Thompson has earned Student-Athlete of the Week for the first time in his athletic career. Eli has led the Football team's defense all year recording 94 tackles going into this week's Sectional Championship game. He recorded nine tackles in the 54-0 Sectional Semi Final win over Tri-County on Friday in only one half of play. Eli has really come into his own this season and continues to be a great teammate and example. Good job Eli!
