Female Athlete of the Week: Claudia Budzak, Volleyball
Congratulations to our Athlete of the Week Claudia Budzak. Claudia was chosen for her commitment to her varsity team and the whole Hornet Volleyball program. Even though she has shown it every week this season, this past week especially Claudia proved what having tenacity really means. Claudia showed up and did her job as the Lady Hornets took care of business against Morton and Glenbard South. In the match against the Mustangs from Morton, Budzak had 3 kills and 1 block. In the match against the Raiders from Glenbard South, she helped close out a program sweep with 3 kills and 2 blocks. Claudia has been a very crucial part of our offense this season. Great Job Claudia! Congratulations on a great week! |

On offense, Sam rushed for close to 100 yards and a 10 yard average per rushing attempt. His long was 19 yards behind a hard working offensive line.
