Congratulations to Jaxson Carver and Delaney Brager for earning Student-Athlete of the Month for September! This new program aims to celebrate the tremendous student-athletes that we have here in WB. Each month, coaches have the opportunity to nominate up to 1 male and/or 1 female to be selected. The WBHS Administration Team is given the nominations and selects that given month's recipients through a voting process. Selection criteria includes: Leadership, Academics (3.0 GPA or higher), Athletic Excellence, Character, etc. Winners receive a Laker Anchor trophy and certificate, and their names and pictures are posted in a special board for a month. September Student-Athletes of the Month: Jaxson Carver (nominated by Coach Hilbers)- "Unquestioned leader of the football program. Carries above a 3.0 GPA. High character and work ethic. Has already passed for over 1,300 yards and accounted for 13 TD" Delaney Brager (nominated by Coach Reed & Coach Hamlin)- "Delaney Brager embodies what it means to be a Laker student-athlete. She is a hardworking, driven leader who genuinely cares about her teammates and takes the time to listen to their needs. Academically, she challenges herself with a full schedule of advanced coursework and multiple AP classes while remaining highly involved in several school clubs and leadership roles. Beyond her accomplishments, Delaney is kind, welcoming, and friendly to everyone she meets. At every golf match, she seems to make a new friend. We are incredibly lucky to have Delaney on our team and to have her help lead our girls golf program. She leads by example and consistently demonstrates how to be a successful student, athlete, leader, and, most importantly, a great person."
