Each week throughout the school year, the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association recognizes 12 varsity athletes, a male and a female from each of the six classifications, who exhibited an outstanding performance during the previous week.
It was announced Feb. 25 that KC Moulden, a senior at Enumclaw High School, was nominated by a community member and selected by WIAA staff as one of the Athletes of the Week for her in wrestling.
Moulden pinned her way through the girls’ 235-pound division during the Feb. 20-21 state wrestling tournamen, to secure her third consecutive state title. She also was an academic state champion and became the only athlete in school history to be a three-time champion in any sport.
In recognition of their accomplishment, each Athlete of the Week receives a congratulatory letter from WIAA Executive Director Mike Colbrese, a commemorative WIAA State Athlete of the Week T-shirt, and a certificate. Winners are also posted to the WIAA website at www.wiaa.com.
The WIAA is a private, nonprofit service organization made up of 800 member high schools and middle schools from every corner of the state.
