Brian Brooks

Brian Brooks will do whatever it takes to help his team.

“Brian will play anywhere to help the team,” Lake Region varsity baseball coach Randy Heath said. “His work ethic is outstanding this season. He pushes pass the drills when he’s tired. He supports his teammates. Brian has been fun to work with. To watch Brian grow into a team leader is really something special.”

In recognition of his strong work ethic, determination, commitment and good sportsmanship, Brian is this week’s Boosters and Hancock Lumber “Player of the Week.” Each week, a Lake Region athlete is recognized for his/her dedication (does more than what is asked), work ethic, coachability and academic good standing. Recipients receive a specially-designed t-shirt, sponsored by Hancock Lumber.
