Charlie Baker is our Female Athlete of the Week from 6U Alexander. She loves a good slant route and running past all the boys to the endzone! Charlie will also be joining 8U sideline cheer to cheer on the 8U tackle team when she's not scoring touchdowns herself!
Our Female Athlete of the Week is sponsored by H.A.L.O Designs. We're glad to partner with H.A.L.O designs who has generously chosen to donate an AOTW t-shirt to the winners each week.
