Girls Athlete of the Week: Casey Ancarrow, John Carroll, lacrosse

The senior attacker capped an exceptional week with five goals and two assists in one of the biggest wins in her team's history, an 18-9 victory over then-No. 1 Mount Hebron at Saturday's Maryland High School Lacrosse Showdown at Johns Hopkins' Homewood Field. Her deceptive moves and terrific timing around the crease were key to the win that boosted the Patriots (7-0) to the No. 1 ranking. She also had a goal and an assist each in wins over No. 4 McDonogh, 14-9, and No. 10 Bryn Mawr, 10-9. Ancarrow, who also plays for the North East Maryland Select club team and played field hockey for John Carroll, has 16 goals, 11 assists and 18 draw controls this season. She has a 3.5 grade point average and plans to become a coach.

Others considered // Erin Brooks, Seton Keough, track and field; Kim Kolarik, South River, lacrosse; Kaitlyn Rohrback, Archbishop Spalding, golf.
