Ellie Meade and Lucy Rosen
Miami Valley Christian Basketball
Ellie, a freshman, was great in a conference match-up Wednesday against North College Hill. She included 10 points, five rebounds, and three steals to go along with her phenomenal effort on the defensive end. Ellie is a very active player who moves well, and we are excited about her future. Shes found a lot of success as a freshman, and we only anticipate that to grow. Great job Ellie! Lucy, a senior, had a big day on Saturday eclipsing the 1000-point mark for her high school career in a conference contest against Lockland. This came on a three-pointer early in the second quarter in front of a great crowd! For the game, Lucy poured in 23 points and led her team to another conference victory where we currently hold a share of the MVC Gray Division lead. Congrats on this awesome accomplishment Lucy!
DJ Williams-Ojile
Junior, Purcell Marian Swimming
DJ has had a great second half of the season so far! His performance at the MVC Championships this past weekend scored points for his team. DJ dropped over 6 seconds in his 100 butterfly jumping into 12th place. He also dropped over 16 seconds in his 500 free moving up from 15th to 13th place. DJ has so much excitement and joy about swimming that is infectious. He is an inspiration for the rest of the team and is the first one to cheer for and support his teammates. We are (almost) as excited as DJ for the rest of the season because we know he will continue to succeed. Good luck at Sectionals, DJ!
Leah Hackney
Senior, Roger Bacon Swimming
Leah has been having an amazing season and has stepped into the role of a leader and a great swimmer on the team. She is one of the most encouraging and caring teammates, and she is always happy to share what she knows with her younger teammates. Leah was a part of the 200 freestyle relay and the 200 medley relay that placed eighth at the MVC Championships. She also placed 14th in the 200 IM and 16th in the 100 freestyle, dropping times in each one of her events. Leah is in a great place heading into the rest of the postseason, and we look forward to all the great things we know she will do! Good luck at Sectionals, Leah!
