This week, we had 10 Rowell’s Garage male athlete of the week nominations. Taylor Schildroth was a big part in George Stevens defeating PCHS and Ellsworth as the Eagles improved to 3-0 on the season. This is the fourth athlete of the week honor for Schildroth. He was named athlete of the week in back to back weeks, during the class C basketball tournament this past February. Schildroth recorded a hat trick to help the Eagles pull off a upset over Orono during the class C north soccer tournament in October.
