Player of the Week: Devin Langadas

SP devin langadasDevin Langadas brings a little attitude to the Lake Region varsity girls’ soccer team’s defense — and it’s all good.

“Devin has worked very hard during preseason and the first two weeks of the regular season to earn her varsity position as a fullback. She brings a positive attitude to the team and works extremely hard in games,” Laker Coach Harvey Toews said. “Devin has good field vision and never backs down from a physical challenge. Her bright smile, positive attitude and hard work have earned her the recognition as Lake Region girls’ soccer Player of the Week.”

In recognition of her strong work ethic, determination, commitment and good sportsmanship, Devin 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.
