The Student Athletic Advisory Committee is recognizing two athletes as Athlete of the Week: Aidan Armstrong for both volleyball and baseball, and Yancey Scott for volleyball.  Aidan balances both sports at once, and he is a strong leader at both. He is very consistent on the volleyball court, helping the team as a setter. He is an integral part of the baseball team as a pitcher as well.  Yancey Scott is dedicated to being the best student athlete she can be, showcasing her skill and determination in every practice. Her teamwork and positive mental attitude not only elevate the team’s dynamics but also contribute to a supportive practice environment. Whether balancing two sports at once or working hard during pre-season training, our WTHS athletes demonstrate their commitment and a strong work ethic.

This is an important year for Key Club as the organization celebrates its 100th year of existence!  We had an inspiring and fun time at the state convention this year, although it was bittersweet as well.  Washington Township actually had two students on the 4-seat executive board for the last year, and this weekend marked the end of their term.  Thanks go out to Gage Gonzalez who did a fantastic job serving as our Bulletin Editor.  Special thanks go out to Jason Bunag, who was elected into the highest district office for a student and served as our Governor this year.  It wasn't always easy, but Jason conquered all the problems he encountered with a smile (and sometimes some venting!), and the district had one of its most successful years ever.  Jason even took the Polar Plunge on Friday to raise money for the Special Olympics, plus got pied in the face.  Key Clubbers know how to show their love to those they admire!  We are also proud to announce that one of our own members was honored with the Key Clubber of the Year award.  This is bestowed on only one person in all the Key Clubs in the state of Indiana for showing exceptional dedication to Key Club.  We are proud to announce that the winner is Camden Bell!  Thank you for your extreme dedication, your organizational skills, and your kind and giving heart.  You deserve this award so much!!

Washington DC is home to many national memorials.  One of the most notable is Arlington National Cemetery.  It is the final resting place of President William Howard Taft and President John F Kennidy.  Yesterday we paid tribute to all of the individuals that have served our country through military service, but Arlington National Cemetery is where we honor those that have made the ultimate sacrifice.  For some families, closure after a conflict was never an option.  Their loved one never came home and was listed as missing in action.  A select few of these individuals have been given the honor of interment at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The Unknowns represent all unidentified service members who gave their lives for the United States.  The  elite 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment guards the Tomb continually, regardless of the weather.  Each guard stands on duty for either an hour or a half of an hour depending on the time of year.  The Tomb Guard marches exactly 21 steps down the black mat behind the Tomb, turns, faces east for 21 seconds, turns and faces north for 21 seconds, then takes 21 steps down the mat and repeats the process.  Each step and pause is to represent the 21 gun salute given in honor of a fallen soldier.   Not only will this year's senior class have the privilege of experiencing this Change of Guard ceremony, but a select few may take part in it by laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.  Washington DC is a place all Americans should visit.  It provides a connection to the past and a way to respect and appreciate all those that have made our country what it is today.  Seniors, if you are interested in participating in this year's senior trip, pick up a packet from Mrs. Peres today.

The Student Athletic Advisory Committee is recognizing volleyball senior Nia Jordan as Athlete of the Week. Nia is constantly pushing herself and persevering through her numerous shoulder injuries for her team. After tearing her shoulder before the first game against Marquette, Nia was hopeful and cheerful for her team, despite not being able to play. Facing Marquette again at the sectional game, instead of playing her normal position as a hitter, she played for her team in the back row to pass. Nia was able to do this because she is a very valuable player who can confidently be positioned anywhere on the floor. Through any obstacle Nia stays positive and always puts her team above herself, making her the true leader she is.

Carter has been an inspirational teammate on the boys cross country team, constantly improving his times at meets. Carter has a great work ethic at practice every day as well. He has hit a personal record at almost every race this season and now has a shot at making the PCC All-Conference team, showing how far he's come during his very first high school season. Madalyn has been an essential part of the defensive line on the girls soccer team, leading the team to many victories and several clean sheets this season. She is also a great teammate, dedicating her time at practice to teaching new players how to be a part of the back line, making sure that the team is left in good hands next year after she graduates.

She has done a very successful job up at the net and also back playing defense. Emma always has a great attitude towards her coaches and teammates and is constantly smiling. She is a hard worker and an all-around great athlete.

The boys soccer team faced off against Griffith last night for senior night in an unforgettable game. Griffith scored first, but Liam Schott equalized by lobbing their goalie from distance. The Senators went into halftime down 2-1, and were down 3-1 with 37 minutes left to play. Later, Jason Bunag danced inside before finding the back of the net, making the score 3-2. With under 10 minutes to go, Lucas Ferguson, Owen Gilbert, and Liam Schott created enough chaos from a corner kick to force an own goal, and the score was somehow tied up at 3-3. Then, to complete the comeback, senior Owen Gilbert chased down a long ball, stole the ball from a defender, and scored to make it 4-3 Senators with just 1 minute left to play. These boys made magic happen on the field last night. Congratulations to the team, especially to our seniors. Thank you to all of those who came out in support last night. 

The Senators play again tonight at Westville with kickoff at 4:30.
