Cascade senior Alyssa St. Peter is the Statesman Journal athlete of the week.
Alyssa St. Peter is good at pretty much everything.
But there’s a reason why her future is in basketball.
The 5-foot-10 senior guard for Cascade High’s No. 1-ranked girls basketball team scored 10 points in Tuesday’s 70-29 win against Philomath and 21 points on 5 of 5 3-point shooting in Friday’s 72-22 win against Newport.
She was chosen as the athlete of the week by readers of the Statesman Journal through online vote on the Statesman Journal’s Facebook page.
St. Peter has committed to play basketball at George Fox.
She was a first-team all-Oregon West Conference selection in volleyball this fall just as she was first-team all-league in softball and basketball as a junior.
St. Peter, and the rest of the athletes of the week, will be honored during the first Mid-Valley Sports Awards show on June 7 at the Salem Convention Center. Terry Bradshaw will be the keynote speaker.
