Another week with some more Nannen Physical Therapy Athletes of the Week.
The latest Washington County honorees are Will Dennis, Oliver Ladehoff and Hayden Daggett.
Will Dennis, Fort Calhoun cross-country: The senior Pioneer closed out his final fall season with a sub-17 minute run across 5 kilometers at the NSAA State XC Championships in Kearney. He clocked in at 16:54.22. Special mention goes to last week’s Athlete of the Week, Chris Post-Whiteowl, for earning a state medal as well as Kaiden Rodriguez, who scored two touchdowns and the go-ahead 2-point conversion against Douglas County West.
Oliver Ladehoff, Arlington football: You’ve read this name here before, but it’s worth repeating. The Eagle didn’t have his best game against Fremont Bergan, but he did surpass 800 rushing yards this season with 68 on just 12 carries. A two-way player, he deserves credit for helping lead the Eagles to their first playoff berth in seven years. Special mention goes to Parker Robinson for an athletic interception against the Knights as well as state cross-country medalist Neva Bauer.
Hayden Daggett, Blair football: The senior receiver closed out his senior season with a three-touchdown game against the Omaha Skutt Skyhawks. The Bears scored 34 points total in the fall finale, which was a season high. Special mention goes to QB Brevin Leggott as well as volleyball player Andi Hume, who had 11 blocks across two matches this week.
Thanks for reading to the end everybody. Have a good seven days.
