TFS coaches select Indians of the Week, Sept. 5-10

Tallulah Falls School coaches have named their Indians of the Week for the week of September 5-10.

MIDDLE SCHOOL BOY

Seventh grader Tate Shaw of Clarkesville was selected as an Indian of the Week by middle school coed soccer coach Zac Roland. “Tate came out this year to play soccer for the school for the first time. His spirit and hustle are inspiring,” Roland said. “In his first match last week against Highlands, he made the assist to give us the lead that led to a victory for us. His ability to be in the middle of things and always in motion serves him and our team very well.”

MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRL

Carol Kate Dunlap, a sixth grader from Lakemont, was named an Indian of the Week by middle school cross country coach Scott Neal. “Carol Kate showed the most improvement from among all our harriers this week, drastically cutting off 50 seconds from her time even though the course was 200 meters longer,” Neal said. “Carol Kate consistently uses the discomforts of practice to get better, to mentally challenge herself.”

VARSITY BOY

Senior Kobhe Macias of Durham, NC was named an Indian of the Week by varsity soccer coach Jonathan Roberts. “Kobhe came into a very difficult match last week and performed with determination and confidence,” Roberts said. “This is the first year Kobhe has made the varsity squad and he has trained with great focus, so that he is now a reliable member of our system. He has demonstrated that he is ready, willing, and able to take on any challenge. I will not hesitate to call upon him in any situation. Kobhe seems to recognize the opportunity before him with respect and gratitude and is a quiet senior leader we can depend upon.”

VARSITY GIRL

Junior Perry Gresham of Clarkesville was named an Indian of the Week by varsity cross country coach Scott Neal. Gresham ran a season best 22:22, slicing 48 seconds from her previous 5K time on the same course.  “Perry had one point in the race that made all the difference; she separated from two other runners by using the downhill to speed up while conserving energy and that separation increased a competitive energy that continued throughout the race,” Neal said.
