St. Augustine Prep senior Angel Gomez has been selected as the Box Out Sports Athlete of the Week for the week of October 28 - Novebmer 3 after a statewide vote on WisSports.net.
There were 8,935 total votes this week. Gomez topped all vote getters with 3,687 votes. New Berlin West's Sean Ryan finished in second with 3,637 votes.
The St. Augustine Prep boys soccer team will compete in its first WIAA State Tournament thanks in part to what Gomez did on the pitch in two sectional matches. The senior forward accounted for all three goals in a 3-1 win over Racine St. Catherine's in the sectionals, netting two goals of his own and assisting on one other. Gomez then found the back of the net two more times in the Lion's 3-2 win over Pius XI Catholic in a sectional final. St. Augustine Prep is the top seed in the Division 3 field.
Gomez and the Lions square off with Delavan-Darien at 4:30 this afternoon in a WIAA Division 3 State Semifinal matchup.
