MAY 19-25: Our final Athlete of the Week of the school year is senior Scout Gallagher, who has been a powerful force on the Varsity team for the past several years. Her coaches praised her prowess at bat (Scout earned five home runs this season alone) and pitching abilities, as well as her leadership on and off the field. Not surprisingly, Gallagher was named All-Conference as well. Her coaches stressed that she will be greatly missed next year, but wish her nothing but the best in her future endeavors!
