LAST TUESDAY, HILLCREST JUNIOR OLIVIA WEBER ENTERED THE STATE GOLF TOURNAMENT IN JEROME, AND CAME HOME WITH A GOLD MEDAL. ON SATURDAY, SHE WAS IN THE FINALS OF THE STATE TENNIS TOURNAMENT IN BOISE, AND CAME HOME WITH ANOTHER GOLD MEDAL IN MIXED DOUBLES. TWO STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS IN TWO SEPARATE SPORTS, ALL IN ONE WEEK.

OLIVIA IS NO STRANGER TO STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS. SHE WON THE GOLF TITLE AS A FRESHMAN BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN SHE CAN CHOOSE BETWEEN HER TWO FAVORITE SPORTS.

WITH HER SPORTS CHAMPIONSHIPS AND A 3.96 GRADE POINT AVERAGE IN ADVANCED STUDIES, OLIVIA IS ALREADY BEING RECRUITED BY MAJOR COLLEGES LIKE GONZAGA, DARTMOUTH, MONTANA AND CLAREMONT.

OLIVIA WEBER, A DOUBLE STATE CHAMPION WHO EVENTUALLY WANTS TO GO INTO ENVIRONMENTAL LAW, IS A CLEAR CHOICE AS OUR KIDK STUDENT ATHLETE OF THE WEEK. BUT REMEMBER, SHE'S ONLY A JUNIOR. SHE HAS ANOTHER YEAR LEFT.
