Here is the Louisburg Sports Zone Athlete of the Week for week five of the spring sports season, sponsored by Landmark National Bank.

MADDY CARPENTER-ROSS, SENIOR, TRACK AND FIELD

Louisburg senior Maddy Carpenter-Ross put her name in the Wildcat track history book last week at the Louisburg Invitational. Carpenter-Ross, the defending state champion in the pole vault, won the event at her home meet by setting a new school record at 11 feet, 7 inches. She broke the old mark of 11-6 that was set by Isabelle Holtzen in 2018.

It has been a dominating season so far for Carpenter-Ross as she won the pole vault gold in all five of her meets this season, including clearing 11-7 at her home meet and again Monday at the Spring Hill Invitational.

The athlete of the week award is announced every Wednesday morning during the spring season and the winner is selected by Louisburg Sports Zone with the help of nominations from coaches.
