Congratulations to the Highlanders who were named GMC Athletes of the Week!
Ellie Polking Girls' Cross Country Soph
Ellie was the team’s #3 runner at Saturday’s Ross Invitational, running a season-best time of 19:53 and helping Oak Hills win the meet. She shows incredible mental strength, giving her best at every practice and race and never giving up. Ellie has set big goals for herself this season and is determined to put in the work to reach them. She is also an outstanding teammate who is always willing to lend a hand and support those around her.
Harper Amlung Girls' Cross Country Soph.
Harper ran a personal-best time of 21:13 at Saturday’s Ross Invitational, improving her previous best by an impressive 56 seconds! This is an exciting accomplishment and a big step forward for her this season. Harper works hard, comes to practice with a great attitude, and brings a sense of fun to the team.
Lincoln Schreiber Football Sr.
Lincoln was 21/22 passing for 335 yards and 3 TD's. He led the offense to 510 yards and 42 points.
Anquan Evans Football Sr.
Anquan had 19 carries for 187 yards and 3 TDs. He also had 62 yards receiving. He was also very good in fulfilling his roll on special teams and blocking in pass protection.
Gavin Craynon Boys' Cross Country Sr.
This weekend at Ross, Gavin ran a personal best of 17:47. Gavin has improved at every single race this season and has become a contributing member of the Varsity team. His previous personal best was from his sophomore year and he has been very motivated this season to beat it.
Jackson Gutzwiller Boys' Cross Country Jr.
Jackson is a junior, but a new member of our team this year. From his first race this season to this past weekend at Ross, he has dropped over a minute in time and made the varsity team. At Ross, he ran 18:01, his fastest time of the year by almost 30 seconds.
Dani O'Shea Girls' Golf Sr.
Dani is a senior leader on Varsity who significantly changes the dynamics of our team for the positive. Besides her 4-stroke improvement on the season, Dan brings our team to life! She supports her teammates & her opponents with positive comments & determination along with a great attitude. She loves school & loves the school activities she participates in as a multi-sport athlete.
Maggie Nienaber Girls' Soccer Sr.
Maggie, a senior, scored her first career goal the other night against Colerain, and she didn't stop there. She added a second goal as time expired, helping the Highlanders earn a big GMC road victory! Maggie's ability to play any position on the field, her willingness to do whatever the team needs, her positive attitude, and the way she is always a great teammate have been a huge asset to the Highlanders' success this season. She gets it done in the classroom, too, carrying an impressive 4.5 GPA.
Gabbi Walters Girls' Volleyball Soph
Gabbi lead the team in a 3-0 week with 124 assists, 22 digs, 5 aces and 3 blocks. As a sophomore, Gabbi has taken on the role as our 5-1 setter, stepping up and becoming a real leader on offense.
