ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: COURTNEY BROCKMEYER

Sport: Volleyball

Position: Outside hitter

This season: Bell City won the Woodland Tournament (Sept. 1-4) with victories over Advance, Meadow Heights and Woodland. Brockmeyer had her best game in the 5-15, 15-5, 15-12 victory over Woodland, and Brockmeyer was named to the Woodland All-Tourney team. In the tourney, Brockmeyer had 29 kills in 75 attemps, 37 digs and 25 service points.

Week report: Brockmeyer, a four-year starter, two-time All-State selection and a member of Bell City's 1996 Class 1A state champion team, had a career-high 20 kills in a loss to Zalma on Tuesday. On Wednesday, Brockmeyer had seven blocks in a loss to Bernie.

Coaches' comments: "Courtney's just an all-around player and floor leader," Bell City coach Carl Ritter said. "She's probably as consistent a hitter as I've coached in five years. Really, this year she's had to hit a little more than we wanted her to hit (due to the graduation of four starters). She had 45 attempts in one game the other night."
