Freshmen basketball and soccer player, Adrianne Caracioni “Ace,” is this week’s Athlete of the Week as selected by Erich Singer, athletic director.

Caracioni has been playing soccer since she was a little kid and basketball since middle school.

“It was pretty fun,” said Caracioni when discussing her first year of high school basketball. “It took up a lot of time, I guess. But I got closer with the girls on the team.”

Her favorite memory from the basketball season was laughing with Shanell Brown, freshman, and teammate of Caracioni on the girl’s freshman basketball team.

“She’s really funny. She’s would always make us laugh,” said Caracioni.

Now that basketball season is over for the freshman and junior varsity teams, Caracioni is focusing on soccer season.

“I’m just excited to play because I didn’t play club this year,” said Caracioni. “And this is my first year not playing club so I just want to get back out there.”

The girl’s soccer team, varsity, and junior varsity will play their first game on Friday, March 22, at 4:30 p.m. against Lawrence High School at Hummer Sports Park.
