West Salem junior Derek Breyman

The junior had four goals and two assists in a 13-2 win against South Salem and one goal and two assists in a 10-5 win against Corvallis last week as the Titans opened North Valley League play 3-0 and moved above .500 overall.

He was selected as the athlete of the week by a Facebook vote of Statesman Journal readers.

Breyman, and the other the athletes of the week from the school year, will be honored during the first Mid-Valley Sports Awards show on June 7 at the Salem Convention Center.
