The following athletes had exceptional weeks on the field at Sachem High Schools East and North:

Sachem East

Jordan Miller and Sam Alvino, Field Hockey: We'd be hardpressed to find a better goalie tandem in Suffolk  County or Long Island field hockey. Aside from one goal allowed this season to Sachem North, of all teams, both goalies have combined for eight shutouts out of nine total wins.
