The Gauntlet’s second athlete of the week goes to Ben Whorf, whose impressive performance against BCS helped the Falcon soccer team cement a 8-0 mercy rule victory in a district game.

Ben had a dominant performance, scoring five goals and assisting one. His addition was a big part leading to the Falcon’s victory.

Ben is a four-year varsity player, and a key component of the Falcons offense. Although he is not just known as a good soccer player, he is a key member to the growth of the cross country team over the past four years.

“Ben has gotten so much better over the years, his speed is so effective that we wouldn’t be undefeated without his work,” said Senior Chris Pennewill

The Falcons continued their undefeated season, Thursday at Southeast with a important 1-0 victory.
