Athlete of the Week - August 16 - 22, 2021

Congratulations to Gianluca S. ’23 for being selected as our Athlete of the Week for August 16 - 22, 2021!
The junior football player was a dominant force at the line for the Cougars against rival Evangelical Christian School last Friday night, helping lead Canterbury to a 10-6 win over the Sentinels. 

Gianluca, a two-way player that normally lines up as tight end and defensive end, stepped up big for the Cougars and filled in on the offensive line and nose guard positions.

"Gianluca stepped in and played a new position for us at the last minute and completely dominated the line for us," said Coach Camarca. "He was involved in three sacks and had four additional tackles, including one for a loss. On the offensive side of the ball, he kept protection for the backfield, not giving up a sack in the game."

Gianluca and the Cougar football team will be back on the field on Friday, September 3 against Southwest Florida Christian Academy. The kickoff is set for 7 p.m. at FineMark Field.
