The following students have been named Athletes of the Week ending February 7:
Kaitlyn Wright '30 - Squash - Kaitlyn had a dominant week for the Blue Devils with two 3-0 shutouts vs. Mercersburg and Conestoga and an additional 3-0 win vs Lawrenceville this Wednesday at the #3 spot. In fact, she has had a very impressive season overall with the US varsity squad; Kaitlyn has not dropped a single game! Amazing work, Kaitlyn, we are so excited for you and the future of SCH squash!
Nick Simon '26 - Basketball - Nick has poured himself into making SCH boys basketball the best program it can be over the past 4 years. Whether he’s keeping stats, stepping onto the practice floor, or helping our coaches manage countless behind-the-scenes responsibilities, Nick is always there, every single day. This past Friday, he suited up for his first varsity game, a moment years in the making. On the opening possession, we ran one of our signature sets to free him up beyond the arc. Nick caught it in rhythm and buried the three, sending the Kingsley Krazies into a frenzy. Nick embodies what it means to be a Blue Devil: selfless, committed, and unwavering in his support of his brothers. We are incredibly grateful for the impact he’s made on this program, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for him!
Kit Thomson '28 - Basketball - Kit has been making big strides in her development as a basketball player. When the lights were brightest on our Suits and Sneakers Night against Hill last Friday, Kit helped seal a 62-54 win with several key rebounds late in the game, in addition to tallying 2 major defensive steals for our team. She embodies one of our core values, embracing your role, and this helped bring us to victory. We are grateful to have Kit as a part of our unit, and I’m sure she has great things ahead of her.
Regen Lytle '27 - Squash - Regen had a dominant performance against a higher-rated player from St. Andrew’s recently, winning in straight sets. He is showing great form even further up the line-up than he has been playing regularly. We are very impressed with his improvement this year and look forward to seeing his future progress!
Teigen Bayles '31 - Basketball - Teigen has shown excellent drive and determination in practices and games, and her skills have made her play a vital role on the varsity team. Her improvement in passing and shooting throughout the season has put her in a great position for success, and we appreciate her work ethic! Awesome job, Teigen!
Mason McFadden '31 - Basketball - Mason was an offensive disruptor on defense last week, totaling 10 steals! He scores the ball efficiently, makes amazing passes to his teammates, and helped the team achieve really great wins this season. Keep up the hard work, Mason. We can’t wait to see what you do next!
Henry Clement '31 - Wrestling - Henry has had a great season for the Devils, showing continuous improvement. He has worked very hard, and this has translated to the mat. Henry recently went 4-0 at Friends Central, winning some tough-fought matches. Proud of you, Henry!
Nicholas Chapman ‘32 - Basketball - Whether it is in practice or a game, Nicholas plays each possession like it is his last. His defensive tenacity helped fuel our big win over Delaware County Christian School, in which he contributed with 8 points, 4 steals, and 3 rebounds. Most importantly, his energy always provides some fuel for our tough team that plays each and every day for each other. Congrats, Nicholas, and always remember, the best way to predict your future is to create it...keep being you!
Sloane Smith '32 - Basketball - Sloane has been a great teammate, tough player, and she has shown tons of improvement since the beginning of the season for the MSG JV. She has stepped up in a major way with her scoring and defense, and we appreciate her excellent work! Way to go, Sloane!
