The following are Brookwood’s athletes of the month for January. Coaches’ comments follow the students’ names:
BOYS BASKETBALL
• Derek Erdman: “Derek works hard, listens, and asks questions. He gets better every practice and is an important part of our team!”
GIRLS BASKETBALL
• Vanessa Anderson: “Vanessa has been a great presence for our team, and she is poised to do great things in whatever she does. She is very coachable and works very hard at practice and in games. She makes our team better, both on and off the court, and is becoming a leader of our team.”
WRESTLING
• Dylan Powell: “Dylan had an excellent month for Brookwood. He became the Scenic Bluffs Conference champion at 106 pounds. He followed that up by earning the WIAA Regional Championship a week later. Dylan works very hard at practice and is stepping into the role of team leader.”
