Reid Tackles

Our first athlete of the week, Justin Reid ‘24, is found on the football field. Reid has already made a name for himself this season: He is the varsity football team captain and the MVP during the game against John P. Stevens, picking up two fumble recoveries. Adding to his early season statistics, Reid totaled fifteen tackles and 1.5 tackles for loss. As he plays his last season as an Eagle, he continues to stand out on the turf while directing his team to victory.

Aravena Scores

Our second athlete of the week, Kayden Aravena ‘25, is found scoring goals for the girl’s soccer team. Starting this season strong, Aravena has been named by NJ.com as one of the top juniors to watch for in the GMC, making eyes glued on her during games. She proved the title with her recent performances, including two goals and one assist against John P. Stevens, two goals against North Brunswick, and four goals in the scrimmage against Nottingham. As the season progresses, Aravena continues to be one of the star players on the team, both to the school and to the state.
