Kentwood sophomore quarterback Jalin Church was a WIAA/Wendy’s Athlete of the Week winner for Week 5 (Sept. 23-29), the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association announced Wednesday.
Church completed 10 passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 150 yards and two more TDs on 12 carries in the Conquerors’ 49-27 North Puget Sound League victory over Auburn Riverside on Sept. 27 at French Field.
Each week throughout the school year, the WIAA recognizes varsity athletes who exhibited an outstanding performance for the previous week (based off nominations). All varsity level students in good academic standing at their schools are eligible to receive the WIAA/Wendy’s Athlete of the Week Award. Students may win the award once during any given academic year.
Nominations are open to athletic administrators, coaches, fans and members of the media, with a weekly deadline of noon Tuesday.
