Athlete of the Week 12/117-12/7/17

Our Athletes of the Week for this week (12/1 – 12/7/17) are:
 
Madison Gadd (Girls Varsity Basketball)
Junior Maddie Gadd came off the bench on Friday, 12/1, to lead the girls Varsity Basketball team in scoring against the Pembroke Dragons with 8 points.  Her strong performance earned her a start for the game against Pioneer on Saturday and once again Maddie made her presence felt.  She finished second on the team in scoring with 7 points and led the team in rebounding with 6.  Maddie’s fine play on both ends of the court for both games of the Alden State Bank Tip Off Tournament earned her a spot on the All-Tourney team.  As a first-year Varsity participant, Maddie has been a consistent performer in the early part of the Bulldog season and should only get better as she gains valuable Varsity experience.
 
Sean Mahaney (Boys Varsity Swimming)
In Alden’s first invitational at Lockport this season, Sean was part of 2 relays which qualified for the sectional meet. He placed the highest individually with a 4th place finish in the 50 Fly.  On Tuesday, Sean was a huge part of Alden’s victory against Tonawanda.  He had two individual first place finishes in the 100 Fly and the 200 IM.  He was also part of two relays which took first place.  In his events, he qualified for sectionals in the 100 free, the 100 Fly and qualified for the class meet in his 200 IM.  He is one of this season’s captains, and he leads very well by example.
