Henry Martello '24 and Kari Teglia '24 have been awarded August 2023 Student-Athletes of the Month.

Awarded Defensive Player of the Game by the South Bend Community School Corporation and the Eagle Hammer Award.
-
In the Eagles' second contest, he recorded 2 tackles, 3 assists, 2 tackles for loss, and 1 sack.
"Henry's work ethic on the field is evident in the classroom as he must work just as hard to perform in the classroom as he does the football field," head coach Andy Dorrel said. "He is not only the most productive Eagle defensive player but also anchors the offensive line. He is a quiet leader who sets a positive example for others, as his humility is one of his greatest assets. Henry epitomizes selfless service as he puts the needs of the team before himself and is the type of player whose efforts make everyone around him better," Dorrel said.
Martello is also a member of the track & field team and was a 2023 IHSAA sectional champion in the shot put and discus.
