This week's "Da Bomb" recipient was given by Mrs. Rhea to Mr. Sigmon (Assistant Principal/Athletic Director).

This week's “Hammer” Student Athlete of the Week is Elizabeth E.
Elizabeth is a standout for our Lady Red Devils, bringing consistent effort, toughness, and energy every time she steps on the court. She leads by example in practice and in games, always doing the little things that make a big difference for our team. Her unselfish play and positive leadership set the tone and push everyone around her to be better. That same dedication shows up in the classroom, where she has earned A’s in all of her classes and holds a Gold Honor Card . Elizabeth truly represents what it means to be a Lady Red Devil, on and off the court.
