New boys basketball award

During this boys basketball season, the coaching staff will be honoring the player of the week who is a non-starter for that week’s game that has contributed the most to the team in terms of statistics, minutes played and inspirational play. The team member will receive a certificate which will allow him to have a free foot-long Subway sandwich of his choice at the Bigfork Subway. Thus the name given for the reward is “Sub of the Week.”

The recipient for the first three games of the season is post player Lael Richmond. The 6-4 junior contributed well in all of the three games prior to Christmas Break, according to head coach Lyle Whiteman. He scored a total of 10 points, garnered 18 rebounds and added two assists, four steals and three blocked shots. Lael also added some strong defense, Whiteman said.
