Hazen gymnast named WIAA Athlete of the Week

Kirsten Timm led the Highlanders’ to their third consecutive Seamount League Championship

Hazen gymnast Kirsten Timm was selected last week as one of the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association for achievement in gymnastics.

Timm, a junior, led the Highlanders’ to their third consecutive Seamount League Championship. She not only won the All-Around, she also took first place in the vault, bars, and beam during the meet.

Each week throughout the school year, the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) recognizes twelve varsity athletes, a male and a female from each of the six classifications, who exhibited an outstanding performance for the previous week.

In recognition of their accomplishment, each Athlete of the Week winner receives a congratulatory letter from WIAA Executive Director, Mike Colbrese, a commemorative WIAA State Athlete of the Week t-shirt, and a certificate. Winners are also posted to the WIAA website at www.wiaa.com
