Congratulations Karenna, Keep working hard!!

Tyler Aucoin is a Junior-Striker, 29 goals in 11 games. Broke the single season scoring record after only ten games. Leads the area in goals scored. Tyler brings it every game, scoring at least one goal against every opponent we have faced. He works hard in the classroom and on the training ground. He is a great example to the younger players and a fantastic leader. Congratulations Tyler, Keep working hard!!

Congratulations to Bennett Bardonaro and Sophia Guggenbiller for being Butler High Schools Athlete of the Week!!

Sophia is leading the Aviators in kills and aces, and currently sits in second place in the league in kills. She has doubled her hitting percentage since last year, and her kill percentage is currently 200 points higher than where she finished last season. Sophia is a multi-sport athlete that has proven over and over throughout her career as an Aviator to be dynamic, dedicated and determined. She thrives under pressure, delivers in big moments and celebrates the success of others. Congratulations Sophia, Keep Working Hard!!

Bennett is a three-year varsity golfer who has been a major contributor to Butler’s outstanding season and current first-place standing in the Miami Valley League. He currently ranks 2nd in the entire MVL with a 37.6 scoring average and has been remarkably consistent, posting rounds in the mid-30s. In addition to his performance on the course, Bennett has become a leader within the program, regularly taking the initiative to organize teammates for additional practice rounds and spending time improving together outside of scheduled practices. His combination of high-level play, consistency, leadership, academic success and commitment to his teammates has helped set the tone for Butler’s success this season. Congratulations Bennett, Keep Working Hard!!

Both Sophia and Bennett are another great example of student-athletes who not only get it done athletically but also in the classroom!!

Go Aviators!!

Congratulations to Taelyn McCracken and Jace Love for being Butler High School's Athlete of the Week.

Taelyn played a huge role in two TOUGH road wins over Northmont and CJ over the past couple weeks. Stepping into an almost-full time role this year at starting CB, Tae has anchored the defense and significantly limited opponent scoring opportunities. She has been tasked with marking the most threatening striker on each team we've played and, with the support of her teammates, has consistently exceeded expectations. Most importantly, Taelyn is a good teammate, working hard in practice, the film room, and supporting those around her both on and off the field. She contributes positively to the team environment and consistently puts the success of the team above her own. Congratulations Tae, Keep working hard!!

Jace had a great game in week 2 against Stebbins. He ran for 216 yards on 23 carries and scored 3 touchdowns. He also plays defense and made some key plays defensively when it was needed the most. He is a high character student athlete with a great work ethic. He leads from the front as 1 of our 4 captains. Congratulations Jace, Keep working hard!!
