Maplewood senior libero Ava Calvert returned to volleyball after an injury sidelined her for the entire 2026 softball season, making her senior campaign especially meaningful as she anchors the Rockets’ defense. In Ohio golf results, Olentangy Orange led one team field at 306, while Teays Valley won another at 298; Teays Valley’s Kroeger was the latter event’s medalist with a 69. The Lansing State Journal’s boys high school athlete-of-the-week poll features an Eastern soccer player who helped secure the program’s first CAAC Red title, a tennis player with a 19-1 record, and a football player who ran for 251 yards and three touchdowns while adding two interceptions.
