Its time again to honor some our awesome athletes, artists and Tigers! This week's 'of the weeks' are athletes Bria Wright & Dayton Moison; artist Brooke Guyer and Tiger Asa Wells.
Bria is a standout on the girls basketball team and has been a key contributor to the team’s success this season, according to Head Coach Brandon Clift.
"Bria shows up every single day and gives her best effort," Clift said. "She is a great teammate who leads by example. During the Great 8 Tournament in Rogers, Arkansas, she averaged 13 points per game and 7 rebounds per game and was selected to the All-Tournament Team."

Dayton is a standout on the boys wrestling team and has been a key leader in the team’s success this season, according to Head Coach Tod Sundlie.
"Dayton was a finalist at Ft. Zumwalt North last weekend and also led his team by going 4-0 in our duals this week," Sundlie said. "His consistent competitive approach is very motivating for our young team."

Brooke, a dedicated and talented art student, has demonstrated exceptional growth and creativity in her work, according to Art Teacher Lindsey Johnson.
"I don't know if Brooke considered herself an artist when she started in Fibers, but now that she is finishing her work in Fibers 2, I am confident she has found her perfect medium to create art," Johnson said. "Brooke has a great work ethic and always strives to take her work to the next level. She definitely deserves to be Artist of the Week!"

Asa, a dedicated JROTC cadet and Captain of the Ozark Precision Rifle Team, has demonstrated exceptional leadership and skill throughout his five years in the program, according to JROTC Instructor William Crawford.
"Cadet Asa Wells is the Captain of the Ozark Precision Rifle Team and has grown from a quiet young man into the Battalion Commander of the Ozark JROTC Tiger Battalion," Crawford said. "He continues to impress both as an athlete and a leader. Most recently, he placed first in the Ozark Home Rifle Meet (Show-Me Shootout), a tournament with 17 schools in attendance. We are excited to watch him continue to grow and look forward to seeing him compete in college, as he currently has a few NCAA Division 1 offers."
Congrats Bria, Dayton, Brooke & Asa!
