Week 2: Eagle of the Week - Jenna McCabe

"The senior class continues to lead the way and set the standard, as the Eagle of the Week in week #2 is Senior, Jenna McCabe. Jenna consistently goes above and beyond in terms of her work ethic, coachability, and focus. She was at every extra individual session last week, gave 100% at each practice, and pushed herself to the limit in the weight room (earning mention of this fact from Chris). Jenna is a leader by example, and for those who follow her example, the rewards will likely come. She is certainly deserving of Eagle fo the Week after last week's performance, and I imagine more of these weeks lie ahead for her...and for those who watch her closely! Congratulations to Jenna and the Maroon team for the Eagle of the Week honor!"

Week 1: Eagle of the Week - Margot Spatola


"Margot has earned the first Eagle of the Week Award for the 2008-09 year! Her focus, hard work, and leadership have been evident all week long. In particular, she has worked hard to adjust stickwork mechanics we have been focusing on and has done an exceptional job of applying what we have asked of her. Additionally, she has been a constant source of communication on the defensive end and has been pushing her teammates through practice as she gives everything she has. I also received word from the weight room that Margot has been stepping up as a leader in their as well, and when you combine hard work in the weight room with hard work on the field, the results are often rewarding. Margot is very deserving of this week's honor, and I imagine many more of her determined teammates will continue to follow suit. We are off to a great start to 2009!"
