Here is the Louisburg Sports Zone Athlete of the Week for week six of the fall sports season, sponsored by IronHorse Family and Cosmetic Dentistry.
MACK NEWELL, JUNIOR, BOYS SOCCER
Louisburg junior Mack Newell has been a big reason for the success of the Wildcat boys soccer team in recent weeks. Newell, the Wildcat goalkeeper, shutout Spring Hill on the road to give Louisburg a revenge win on the Broncos with six saves on Oct. 5. Last Thursday, Newell recorded eight saves in the Wildcats’ win over state-ranked Eudora.
Louisburg is currently on a 6-game winning streak and Newell has had a strong season to date, despite missing 10 days early in the season. On the year, Newell has recorded seven shutouts, eight victories and 41 saves.
The athlete of the week award is announced every Wednesday morning during the fall season and the winner is selected by Louisburg Sports Zone with the help of nominations from coaches.
