Daniel Ramirez - GMS Soccer

After making the transition from midfield to the center back position this week, he helped to anchor the defense a played a key role in holding both opponents this week to just one goal. He has been outstanding in his work ethic, and his ability to stay calm under pressure has helped bring stability and confidence to the rest of the team.
Jasmine Urbina - GMS Soccer
Jasmine is a 7th grader at GMS and currently a member of the GMS Soccer Team. The MS Soccer Team put together two big wins this week and Jasmine played a big part in that. She was able to find the back of the net twice, scoring her first two goals of the season. Her growth has been incredible to watch, as she is truly coming into her own. She's playing with newfound confidence, taking smart shots when the opportunity is there, and showing great awareness by finding open teammates. Her development is making a big impact on the team and this is just the beginning.

Lifeguards
Teachers and Staff - a sheet has been shared with you that includes the names of students who are playing fall sports, their grade level, their coach, and their coach's contact info. If you feel contacting a coach about a student-athlete's behavior or performance in the classroom is necessary, please don't hesitate to do so. There has also been a gate duty sign-up sheet shared with you for the school year. If you work 4 gates, you earn a family pass or CYOW. If you work 8 gates, you get both!
Coaches - Please submit summaries and pictures of teams and/or individuals to georgeedmondson@galaxschools.us so that we can recognize those accomplishments. Please continue to not allow any student athletes to participate in games/meets/matches until they turn in their signed handbook page. In addition, please do not allow them to participate in any activity (practice or play) until you have a copy of their current VHSL physical.
Parents - Please return the signed athletic handbook form as soon as possible so we can get these student athletes on the court/field with their teams to wash out the competition. Please let us know if your student-athlete has participated and/or excelled in any athletics outside of school that we can recognize.
