Athlete of the Week

At Creekside High School, we would like to recognize our student-athletes whose effort, desire, sacrifice and contribution has made a difference to their team, coaches and teammates throughout the week. Unlike most recognition awards these nominations represent much more than just personal achievement on the field of play.  Great teams have players willing to take on new roles and support others for the greater good. By receiving this award, the player has demonstrated great character, leads by example, has a willingness to put others first, made sacrifices or other valuable contributions to the success of their team that which is not always recognized.

Vance Bennett is a senior who has worked hard and done everything that has been asked of him.  This past week in a game against Episcopal, Vance stepped in and played a different position than normal to fill the vacancy of an injured teammate.  While doing so, Vance scored 3 touchdowns and rushed for 240 yards!  We are proud of how he stepped in to lead!
