💙💛 THE FINAL ATHLETES OF THE WEEK OF THE SCHOOL YEAR 💛💙
What a ride it has been.
From Friday night lights… to packed gyms… to walk-off wins, school records, conference titles, sectionals, regionals, and unforgettable moments — this year reminded us why East Noble is such a special place.
At Zach Pruitt State Farm, we just want to say THANK YOU for letting us celebrate these young athletes all year long. The support, shares, comments, and love from this community has been unbelievable.
And for our final post of the school year… we had to end it the right way. 👇🔥

🎾 GIRLS TENNIS
💙 MAKENNA STROHM 💙
Pressure match. Rival school. Sectional stage.
Makenna battled through a GRITTY 3-set match against DeKalb to pick up the final win of her career at #1 Singles. 🎾🔥
But what made her season special goes way beyond wins. Every single match she took on the challenge of facing the opponent’s BEST player — helping position her teammates for success across the lineup. That’s leadership. That’s sacrifice. That’s what captains do. 👏

🥎 SOFTBALL
💥 BRI BORTNER 💥
Bri was EVERYWHERE last week.
🔥 Hit .545
🔥 Stellar defense
🔥 2 stolen bases
🔥 Sacrifice bunts & flys that helped the TEAM win
Some players shine because of stats.
Others shine because they do ALL the little things that change games. Bri did both. 💪🥎

🏃♀️ GIRLS TRACK
👑 KATE DAVID 👑
This story right here is what high school sports are ALL about. 💙
Kate has been a captain for THREE years and has already found success in sprints and throws throughout her career… but this season, the team needed another pole vaulter.
So she stepped up.
And at Sectionals?
She cleared 9 FEET, placed 3RD, and qualified for the IHSAA Regional Meet. 😳🔥
New role. New challenge. Immediate success.
That kind of selflessness and leadership helped fuel another championship season for the Lady Knights.
Absolutely incredible. 👏

🏃♂️ BOYS TRACK
⚡ NATE SCHLOTTER ⚡
Nate has been the definition of consistency and leadership all season long. Quiet work. Relentless effort. Leading by example every single day.
Then at Sectionals — when the lights were brightest — he delivered.
🏁 Won his heat in the 1600
🏁 Set a PERSONAL RECORD
🏁 BROKE the 5-minute barrier for the FIRST TIME
That’s what happens when preparation meets belief. Huge moment. Huge accomplishment. 💨🔥
