Female Athlete of the Month 

Kelley Lynch                                               

Richland Center High School Girls Basketball
Senior

Nomination:Kelley Lynch

I would like to nominate Kelley Lynch for Athlete of the Month for the month of December. Kelley has been a key contributor to our 5-3 star against one of the toughest schedules we have ever had to start a season, including games against 5 teams ranked in their respective divisions / states. Kelley was the poster child for consistency during this stretch, emerging as one our key leaders. She was named as our team's captain due to her hard work ethic and ability to lead by example. While points and statistics generally hoard the limelight in sports, Kelley has made her mark by simply outworking people. Her stats are respectable as she is currently third on our team in points and seond in rebounds despite continually going up against opponents 4 - 5 inches taller than herself, but her biggest quality is simply her heart and desire to be successful.

It seems to me that while is is easy to focus on big numbers and flashy statistics it is an athlete like Kelley for who this award was meant for. She is not only worthy of such an award, but really the standard by which winners should be measured by and the motto for which all high school athletes should adhere to ... play the game with heart and passion!

 

 

 

In order to be considered for the award, student athletes are required to be nominated by a coach or an athletic trainer, be in good academic standing, and be a varsity team member. Further, the school the student attends must be a participant of the Richland Sports Medicine program. Qualifying schools include Richland Center, Riverdale, Ithaca, and UW-Richland. 

Each coach and athletic trainer is asked to submit nominations based on whatever criteria they feel is outstanding about the nominee. Athletic performance can be for an individual game performance (i.e. no hitter in baseball/softball, Triple double in basketball, defensive effort, etc.) or for the entire month. Coaches and athletic trainers can also nominate for leadership, commitment, and work ethic. Any athlete can be nominated for any reason. After all submittals are made, a committee of seven members rank the athletes according to the information provided in the nomination.

All Athletes of the Month are automatically nominated for the Athlete of the Year Award which is presented at the end of the school year. Each Athlete of the Month also receives a plaque created and donated by Main Street Trophy Plus / Jim Greeley Signs & Awnings of Richland Center.
