Athlete of the Week


Andrew Benga of the Springs Christian Academy Eagles soccer team is this week’s Home Run Sports Winnipeg High School athlete of the week.

This 5’7” midfielder is the Eagles’ captain. At the recent Beaver Brae Soccer tournament in Kenora, he received All-Star recognition. Coach Kim Barkowski states, “I have had the honour of working with Andrew for 4 years and he has constantly impressed me with his talent, positive attitude and skills. It’s Andrews humble leadership style and his ability to inspire, motivate and elevate his teammates to a higher level of play that sets him apart from other athletes.”

In his grade 12 year he maintains an academic average of 93%.
