Dos Pueblos football’s Callan Lee and Bishop Diego multi-sport standout Natalie Chan shined last week en route to being named the Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table Athletes of the Week.
The pairing was honored at Monday’s SBART Press Luncheon at Harry’s Plaza Cafe.
Lee played a key role in the Chargers coming out on top over Hueneme by a score of 28-7 in last Friday’s Homecoming Game and Tri-County League opener.
The senior took over the running game for Dos Pueblos, turning 23 carries into 175 rushing yards and a pair of touchdowns on the night. He also contributed on the defensive side of the ball.
Chan, who plays both volleyball and tennis for the Cardinals, made her mark in both sports last week. In tennis, she went 6-0 in singles play across two matchups while dropping just one game along the way.
On the volleyball court, she tallied 14 kills, 11 digs and three aces in a four-set win over Cate and followed that up with 15 kills and five digs in a four-set victory over Villanova Prep.
The boys honorable mentions were Sam Crawford (Bishop Football), Andrew Sheshunoff (Cate Water Polo), Jake Magid (SM Water Polo), Grant Nelson (DP Water Polo) and Paolo Borgioli (SB Water Polo).
The girls honorable mentions were Sofi Hernandez (SM Cross Country), Cate Bishop (DP Cross Country), Jaqueline Guadian (Carp Cross Country), Celeste Alcaraz (DP Golf), Peyton Sperling (SM Flag Football) and Janelle Capuno (SM Flag Football).
The Athlete of the Week award winners are selected by the local sports media. Coaches are encouraged to nominate deserving athletes. Nominations should be sent to sports@noozhawk.com by Saturday afternoon, if possible.
