Girls’ Swim

The girls’ swim and dive team for Northtown this year was small but determined. A lot of changes were made, the biggest change being new coaches. The Northtown team practiced with the Oak Park and Staley teams this year, bringing a whole new attitude to the team, as well as an opportunity for new friendships.

There were no divers this year and only five girls represented the Hornets at swim meets. Freshman Rebekah Best, Elly Lewis; and sophomores Hannah Leach, Carlen Fidler, and Erin Parra worked extra hard to make Northtown proud. The girls took third place at JV conference, which was the end of their season.

Girls’ Basketball

The varsity girls’ basketball team had a great season this year. The ladies finished with a record of 7-9. The girls also won the Northland Classic, making them the Northland Classic champions. The seniors on the team this year were: Kyaunna Robinson, Amellia Coffey, Sarah Streitmatter, and Yonie Manning.

Boys’ Basketball

The men’s basketball team had a great season this year. There were seven seniors on the varsity team including: Bec Monydit, Ethan McFarland, Nagkgo Roup, Sam Vollbrecht, Geoffrey Borque, Atreyu Hopkins, and Enoch Berhanu. District competitions were held the week of Feb. 20-24.

Wrestling

The boys on the wrestling team always work hard to have a successful season every school year and this year was no exception. The seniors on the team this year were: Jacob Ballard, Marcus Poitier, Kole Hanna, Zac Love, Grayson Gist, Dylan Underwood, and Skylar Austin. Junior Kyle Bates ended the season with a team-leading 20 wins. Seniors Skylar Austin and Kole Hanna ended their wrestling season at Districts. Both boys have wrestled for four years at Northtown.

“I am very proud of these guys that worked hard every day and finished the season. I couldn’t ask for a better group of guys to build our program on for the next couple of years,” said Coach Wade Walker.
