Each week, Menifee 24/7 honors top student-athletes at Paloma Valley High School. The coach of each varsity sport is allowed to select athletes based on the previous week's performances or on potential shown by the athlete. Here are this week's Paloma Valley High School Athletes of the Week:
Sophomore wrestler Andres Muller helped the Wildcats to a 3-0 start in league. He performed well at the prestigious Battle for the Belt Tournament, qualifying for the second day of competition and finishing in the top 16 out of 64 wrestlers.
Senior center Austin Hankins has provided valuable leadership for the boys basketball team, which is 13-8 overall and 3-2 in league play. "Austin has really stepped up his game this year and we are very proud of him," said his coach, Michael Pfeiffer.
Junior guard Yolette Louis is averaging 8.7 points and 4.3 rebounds per game for the girls basketball team, which was 2-2 heading into Friday night's league action. "She has outstanding character, understanding of the sport, and she's our leading scorer," said her coach, Romeo Galbreath.
Sophomore Jordyn King is having an excellent year for the girls soccer team, which is 5-0 in league play.
"Jordyn made her impact on the offense last year on varsity and is doing the same thing, but more on the defensive side this year," said coach Marie Dillon. "She is very good at reading the game and winning balls in the air. What I love most about Jordyn is her work ethic and how she cares so much about the team. She does whatever it takes."
