Tyler Roth/WKVI Co-Athletes of the Week 4/17/2021
Our Tyler Roth/WKVI Co-Athletes of the Week for this week are Chloe Kraus, a member of the Girls Track Team at North Judson-San Pierre High School and Annika Smith, a member of the Softball Team at West Central High School.
Chloe won every event in which she participated in 2 triangular meets while Annika led her team to 3 wins with unbelievable statistics in the field and at the plate.
Chloe won the 100, 200 and long jump and was part of the victorious 4-by-100 relay team as the Lady Jays took on LaCrosse and Caston in one meet and Knox and Winamac in the second meet. Chloe, a Junior, qualified for the Regional in all 4 events and won them all in the Hoosier North Conference two years ago.
Just a Freshman, Annika led her team to victories over LaCrosse, Rensselaer and Washington Township, batting .916 in the 3 games on 11-of-12 hitting which included 6 singles, 2 doubles and 3 Home Runs, the last a walk-off Grand Slam Homer that gave the Trojans the win over Washington Township via the 10-run rule. In addition, she had 10 RBI’s in the 3 games and, playing short stop and third base, she was a perfect 7-for-7 on chances in the field.
Chloe is the daughter of Marlene and Tom Kraus. Annika is the daughter of Myka Warner and Ryan Smith.
