Athletes of the Week | April 5
Nolan Tantay
Senior
Weightlifting
Mariner Tritons
The senior Triton took home the FHSAA 2A-14 District Championship at 199-pounds in the Olympic class, with a total lift of 500 pounds. Tantay also finished fourth in the district in traditional lift.
“It means a lot to me to win the district championship. Coming off of surgery and not being sure if I could compete this season, and now placing first in every meet, has been such a blessing. I plan to keep doing what I’ve been doing – staying consistent and focused on my technique and keeping a positive mindset no matter what.”
