Good Sunday evening to everyone! I hope you had a wonderful fall break this past week!
Athletic director, Calvin Head, recently announced the September athletes of the month. These students are nominated by their coaches and voted on by all fall sport coaches as well. We are pleased to announce the following selections:
RMS:
Male-
Jonathan Zamarippa. Jonathan is one of the more experienced players on a very young team and gives us a very stable presence in the field. Rarely makes mistakes and always tries his hardest. (Comments from Soccer Coach-Jonathan White)
Female-
Addie is a first year cheerleader with great team spirit. Addie is always the first one to pitch in to help in any situation. She shows great leadership and is very respectful. Addie also is outstanding in her academics. She plays softball for RMS lady Panthers, and cheers and still has time for grades, family and friends She is an all-around GREAT athlete. (Comments from Cheer Sponsor's-Leslie Coffman and Beverly York)
RHS:
Male-
Nelson Suiter. We have a very young and inexperienced team, but Nelson is our lone returning golfer. Nelson has stepped up this year and took on a leadership role. He does a good job working with his younger team members before, during, and after practice teaching them the game of golf. Nelson finished the golf season with his best round of the season on Tuesday against Todd County. He shot a 49. (Comments from Golf Coach-Nathan Thompson)

Elly Myers. She has a wonderful attitude, always goes above and beyond what is asked of her, and always encourages her teammates. Elly also performs extremely well in the classroom. Elly exhibits the perfect characteristics of what a student-athlete should be. (Comments from Cheer Sponsor's- Kia Santiago and Heather Rickman).
Overall Athlete (Chosen by the AD) :
Halle is a 3 year veteran cheerleader leading a group of extremely young girls this year at RMS. She is the prime example of a leader that they all look up to. Halle is on many teams, (RMS cheer, RMS softball, RHS cheer and 2 All Star teams) and still she maintains a 4.0 GPA and is currently taking 2 high school classes. She always has a smile and she is a great leader. (Comments from Athletic Director-Calvin Head)
