Each week throughout the school year, the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) recognizes twelve varsity athletes, a male and a female from each of the six classifications, who exhibited an outstanding performance for the previous week.
Alexyss Nelson, a senior, from Cedar Park Christian in Bothell was nominated by a community member and selected by WIAA staff as one of the Athletes of the Week for achievements in Volleyball.
Nelson racked up 53 assists, 10 digs, six kills, five aces and four blocks last week in three-set victories over Archbishop Murphy and Sultan.
In recognition of their accomplishment, each Athlete of the Week winner receives a congratulatory letter from WIAA Executive Director, Mike Colbrese, a commemorative WIAA State Athlete of the Week t-shirt, and a certificate. Winners are also posted to the WIAA website at www.wiaa.com.
