Brooke Huculak of the Elton Sabres volleyball team is this week’s Tri-Star Rural High School athlete of the week.

This 5’10” left side led her team to the final of four tournaments this year, earning all-star recognition at the Vincent Massey Classic tournament.  She leads the team in kills, attack percentage, passing percentage, and digs.  She was also instrumental in the Sabres winning the Zone 7 Championship, qualifying them for provincials and a chance to repeat as Provincial Champions.  Coach Jeff Maxwell states, “Brooke has been a great volleyball player since she entered our school.  This year she has taken her game to a new level.  She is using a number of different shots to score and she is our best defender.  Brooke’s greatest strength is her ability to elevate her performance in big games.”

In her grade 12 year she maintains an academic average of 75%, while also competing in basketball and track & field.
