Volume 1 August 12, 2024
Welcome to Westminster High School's Monthly Athletics and Activities Newsletter! As we kick off the fall sports season, we're thrilled to see our students back in action, showcasing their talents and dedication. This year promises to be one of growth, achievement, and memorable moments. Together, let's strive for excellence both on and off the field. Here's to a successful and exciting year ahead. Go WOLVES!
BOYS BASKETBALL
The Boys Basketball team welcomed new coach Gilbert Guo over the summer. The team spent time getting to know each other and got a few games in too!
GIRLS VOLLEYBALL
The Girl's Volleyball team traveled to Greeley to stay at The University of Northern Colorado. It was a great experience of bonding and competition.
STUDENT COUNCIL LEARNS TO LEAD
BOYS AND GIRLS GOLF WORKED ON THEIR GAME
Golfers came together this summer to walk off yardages and fine tune their short game. WOLVES don't 3-putt.
"Navy Seal Box Breathing"
When in high-stress situations, it's crucial to remain calm and think clearly. Navy SEALs use box breathing as a quick way to get the nervous system under control.
-Start by slowly exhaling all the air in your lungs.
-Then inhale through your nose to a count of 4
-Hold that breath for a count of 4
-Fully exhale for a count of 4
Use this before you hit that tee shot, use that jump serve, or nail that PK.
GABRIEL MARTINEZ
Gabriel had a career best golf round to end the season, look for him to not miss many fairways.
JARED SILVA
Jared's character and determination earned him a spot on varsity soccer last year. He started his season shy not very vocal but this year during summer practices he has come out of his comfort zone and has been carrying the team and held them accountable as a Junior.
CYNTHIA ROSALES
Cynthia is a futures stand out and utility player, who spends most of her time behind the plate. The scouting report says she is a skilled player and a hard worker, look for her to make an impact.
ADRIAN MORENO
Moreno competed at the 2024 Kohls National Kickers Camp, where he was rated as a ⭐⭐⭐⭐kicker. Moreno showed smooth leg work with power to back it up, with his longest kick being 75 yard, and a 3.34 hang time.
DANIEL HERRERA
Daniel just picked up golf this year at camp. Seems to be a natural when it comes to swinging the club.
DAMIAN LOPEZ
Junior Damian Lopez finished his fastest 5k in under 19 minutes and was our fastest runner even though it was his first year running! He's extremely competitive and motivated and should only continue to get better over time.
