WAVERLY'S CLONCH NAMED BISHOP BROTHERS CONSTRUCTION GIRLS "ATHLETE OF THE WEEK"
Clonch was the very last line of defense, and recorded 12 saves in Waverly's 2-0 win over Chenango Forks in the Section IV, Class B Championship game.

Clonch could easily share this honor with her defense — sophomore Makenzie Olmsted, freshmen Maci Wheeler and Kendall Rockwell, and junior Haley Larrabee — which consistently thwarted CF attacks well away from the goal.

Honorable Mentions: Athens' Sara Bronson (cross country), Athens' Kassie Babcock (volleyball), Athens' Emma Renninger (volleyball), Waverly's Lauryn Welles (swimming), and Waverly's Audrey Kellogg (swimming).
