BOYS SOCCER |
 Name: Adam ReidellSchool: West Geauga Grade: Junior Stats: Recorded nine saves in a 2-1 win over Ravenna and seven more in a 2-0 win over Gilmour Coach’s Quote: “Adam had a varsity-laden defense last year, this year he has a young and inexperienced group of kids in front of him,” said West Geauga coach Ante Rados. “He goes out every game making important saves to keep his team in the game. I turned Adam from a field player into a goalkeeper. At 6-foot-4, 200 pounds, he is a high school coaches dream for a goalkeeper.” |
GIRLS SOCCER |
 Name: Jenna LandrusSchool: Berkshire Grade: Senior Stats: Scored two goals in a 3-0 Senior Night win over Garfield Heights Coach’s Quote: “Jenna is having a stellar senior season with 13 goals and 6 assists,” said Berkshire coach Rick Nerone. “Jenna is an extremely hard worker on and off the soccer field. Jenna leads by example on the field and also at practice by always giving her all.” |
VOLLEYBALL |
 Name: Aly BerrySchool: Madison Grade: Junior Stats: Recorded an 89-percent serving rating and a 91-percent passer rating (65-71) in leading the Blue Streaks to a second place finish and earning all-tournament honors at Perry. Coach’s Quote: “Aly has been our steady, reliable player all season,” said Madison coach Janet Sovey. “Her consistent play keeps us in the game. Her positive attitude has helped us throughout the season. Aly is our rock, our go-to player. Aly's work ethic in the classroom equals her work ethic on the court.” |
 Name: McKenna TucekSchool: Berkshire Grade: Junior Stats: Recorded 51 kills, 41 digs, 15 service points and a 87-percent serve reception percentage on 63 attempts in three matches Coach’s Quote: “McKenna is a huge reason why we were able to beat a very good SVSM team and win at Cardinal to put us in a first place tie for the league,” said Berkshire coach Joni Prots. “She is a leader on the court at all times and her knowledge of the game is a huge advantage for her and her teammates. McKenna is our leader on the court. Everyone notices how hard she swings, but she is also very consistent on serve receive and anticipates very well on defense. This is sometimes overlooked but it is what makes her a complete player.” |
