High School Football: Cooper Mooney
Cooper is the ultimate team player. During the preseason, he was asked to move from Tight End to Offensive Line. He responded with, "Whatever is best for the team." Since his position change, Cooper has been excelling in his new position. Cooper is also a senior leader on our team and sets a great example for others to follow, both in the classroom and on the field.
Junior High Football: Alex Kendrick
Alex has improved greatly in terms of his football IQ and is an anchor for us on the Offensive and Defensive Line. He brings a physicality and toughness to the game that is unmatched. He always gives his best effort and does whatever he can for his team to succeed. I look forward to seeing how much he improves over the course of the season.
Girls Golf—Bailey Steeby
We would like to nominate Bailey Steeby as our Kathlete of the Month for August. Having just started playing golf this year, she is exceeding expectations getting better and better each week. She has also demonstrated outstanding team leadership as a senior, and we are grateful to have her representation of Union Star on our team. Congratulations Bailey!!! We appreciate you!!!
Varsity Volleyball – Annalee McGhee
Sophomore Annalee McGhee has kicked off the season with unmatched energy, focus, and growth. Since last year, she has made remarkable strides not only in her technical skill but in her understanding of the game and her emerging leadership on the court. Annalee is consistently encouraging to her teammates, highly coachable, and brings contagious positivity to every practice and match. In the season opener, she held her own against a powerful senior opponent, showcasing grit, determination, and composure well beyond her years. With her rapid development and drive, Annalee’s future in volleyball is nothing short of blindingly bright.
Junior High Volleyball—Peyton Stewert
Peyton is new to our school district and decided to go out for the team. She is a soccer player that has never played volleyball. She has improved greatly over the first 3 weeks of practice. During our first match against Rockport, she made several good plays during the "A" games. Peyton also stood out as a great teammate. She had a positive attitude and never got down or quit trying. We are excited that she came out for the team and happy to have her at King City.
High School Cheer—England Garlock
England Garlock is the Varsity Cheer Kathlete of August! She has taken on the captain role like a champ! She has worked hard to help get the homecoming dance together, helping others learn new cheers, and showing kindness to all. The season has just begun and so far her leadership has been a great contributing factor to our fantastic squad.
Junior High Cheer—Cassidy Dyke
Cassidy Dyke is brand new to the junior high cheerleading squad and she has been bringing all of the energy! She asks questions and tries her best 100% of the time. She is outgoing and a great person to be around. She is always smiling and does a great job of keeping the crowd participating with the cheers.
High School Softball—Kamryn Miller
For the month of August, for the nomination of King City/Union Star High School Softball team, I would like to nominate Kamryn Miller. Kamryn is always willing to do whatever it takes for the team. She exemplifies leadership on the field and has also shown leadership skills off the field as a captain. She does an excellent job organizing team events and planning fun team-building activities. I genuinely appreciate Kamryn’s hard work and dedication.
Junior High Softball—Cassidy Dyke
Cassidy has worked extremely hard at practice and in the off season to be a better player for the team. Her hard work shows, and her consistency everyday at practice is appreciated. Cassidy has a terrific attitude everyday, stepping in to fill whatever roll needed. She is quick to help out a teammate or a coach with anything they need. That is why Cassidy has earned this month's Kathlete award.
