Sydney Thompson (Girls Varsity Basketball)

Junior Syd Thompson had a career night on Tuesday against Eden and her team needed every bit of her efforts as they had to go to overtime to earn a 53-51 victory. Syd was the leading scorer with 14 points [she scored 6 of the teams 10 pts. in overtime.]She also led the team in rebounding with 10 [8 on the offensive glass] and an incredible 9 steals [the team had 14].  Syd’s efforts were instrumental in the Bulldogs’ comeback from an 11 point halftime deficit to pull out a much needed victory. Syd  practices hard every day and it translates to success on game days. This season she is either 1st or 2^ndin every major statistical category on the team.  A 2-year starter and only a junior, Syd’s unselfish play and tireless work ethic sets her up for many more future successes!

We spoke with Josh Chester about how he feels about receiving the award, as well as, the hard work that has gone into it.
