This week's female athlete of the week is Lacey Campbell.  Lacey is in her 2^nd year with the Lions and showed her value to her team this pat weekend at the ACAL tournament.  She was full of energy for all three games and had an extremely positive attitude, which rubbed off on the rest of the team.  Coach Barnett noted that "Lacey always competes hard, is a gifted passer and a very strong finisher."  Lacey is a true asset to this team and is one of the reasons the Lions are undefeated and in first place.  The women look to continue that pace on Saturday, February 6, when Ambrose hosts the final ACAL tourney of the year.  Congratulations Lacey Campbell on being named the Ambrose Lions Female Athlete of the Week!

GK - Kevin Reierson; Men's Futsal

This week's male athlete of the week is Kevin Reierson.  Kevin is in his 3^rd year with the Lions and is the last line of defense for the futsal team.  As the keeper of an offensively gifted team, it is easy for him to fly under the radar, but his value to the team is immeasurable.   This past weekend, Kevin did no allow a goal, shutting down Olds and Prairie in two tough games.  While playing well between the pipes, he also distributed the ball very effectively, which set up offensive chances for his teammates.  Kevin has developed into the top keeper in the ACAL and he will be counted on in the final stretch of the season as the men seek after a perfect season.  They currently sit 6-0 with three games left.  February 6, Ambrose hosts an ACAL tourney and will seek to build on its strong season thus far.  Congrats should go out to Kevin Reierson for being named the Ambrose Lions Male Athlete of the Week.
