| ATHLETE OF THE WEEK (click here for past winners) This week the PQSports Athlete of the Week is Westview Senior Outside Hitter Juliann Faucette. Juliann is one of the top players in the county, and one of the top high school volleyballers in the nation. She was one of 2 high school players selected to play on our national team versus Mexico. Her coach, Luis Cuatok, has plenty of praise for Juliann. "For her to just start playing volleyball as a freshman and making it to the national team as a senior is unheard of. On top of that, she is just an all-around great person" Overall, the team is doing very well. They placed third at the Granite Hills and Scripps Ranch tournaments. This week is especially tough, with a match at Torrey Pines on Tuesday, Wednesday at Poway, and then Friday at home versus cross-town rival Mount Carmel. Other standouts on the team include Senior Setter Ashley Sacknoff, Senior Libero Katie Girton, and Junior Outside Hitter Erin Lupfer. Juliann is happy with the season overall, as her Wolverines have done well. She says that "We are a young team and always work hard." As for playing on the national team, that "was an awesome experience. I learned a lot and now know where I need to be as a player." Congrats Wolverines, and good luck during this tough week. Feel free to give Juliann and the rest of the Wolverines a shout-out on the message boards.
