Paying a lot of attention to detail and working hard in practice enabled Kyle Peterson to be one of the top players on the Lake Region varsity golf team.

“Kyle was very dedicated, had a very good attitude, and worked well with our younger players,” LR Coach Art Kilborn said. “He shot a 43 in our final meet,which was a nice way to end the season.”

In recognition of his strong work ethic, determination, commitment and good sportsmanship, Kyle 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, and a $25 gift certificate to Salon at 616 in Casco.
