Performance of the Week: Bay City John Glenn's Asher Clark
October 4, 2024
Asher Clark ♦ Bay City John Glenn
Junior ♦ Soccer
The Bobcats’ junior striker put together a dominating day in helping John Glenn through a historic run at the Swartz Creek Invitational. Clark scored a combined six goals with eight assists as his team defeated Perry 8-0, Swartz Creek 6-0 and Chesaning 3-0 to move to 18-0-2 this season – with the 18th win setting the team’s single-season record.
John Glenn is up to 21-0-2 after its regular-season finale Thursday against North Branch, an 8-0 win during which Clark had six goals and one assist. The Bay City Times reported that Clark has 47 goals this fall, six shy of the single-season school record set in 2008 by Ty Richards. Clark also plays basketball for the Bobcats and is hoping to continue his soccer career at the college level.

Performance of the Week: Traverse City St. Francis' Grace Slocum
August 30, 2024
Grace Slocum ♦ Traverse City St. Francis
Senior ♦ Golf
The Gladiators' lead golfer has been on an incredible roll to begin this season; she's a combined 4-under-par after five tournaments and won all five events. She opened with a 15-stroke victory at the Traverse City West Invitational, won the two-day Lober Classic by 14 strokes and then last week's St. Francis Invitational by 18 strokes. This week she's added a 17-stroke win at the Grayling Invitational and Thursday carded a 6-under-par 65 to win the Petoskey Invitational by 10 strokes.
Slocum finished eighth at the Lower Peninsula Division 4 Final as a freshman, moved to third as a sophomore and placed fourth as a junior last fall as her team climbed the standings to tie for sixth place. She's also played hockey for several years but will be focusing on golf moving forward after recently committing to sign with Wisconsin. She plans to major in biochemistry and minor in nutritional sciences in preparation for medical school.
