Nick Scarlett

Nick Scarlett is very coachable and eager to improve in his track & field events.

“Nick added the triple jump this year to his events and had success at meets,” Lake Region Coach Mark Snow said. “He does not get down if he has a poor result in an event. Nick is able to lift the spirits of his teammates when they are down.”

In recognition of his strong work ethic, determination, commitment and good sportsmanship, Nick is this week’s Boosters and Hancock Lumber “Player of the Week.” Each week, a Lake Region athlete is recognized for his/her dedication (does more than what is asked), work ethic, coachability and academic good standing. Recipients receive a specially-designed t-shirt, sponsored by Hancock Lumber.
