Ava Koenig of Palo Verde has been voted the Las Vegas Review-Journal Girls Prep Athlete of the Week for performances during March 23-28. The senior pitcher/utility player secured 369 of 487 total votes, good for 75.8 percent.

Koenig, a Boston University commit and reigning 5A Mountain League Pitcher of the Year, threw a complete-game one-hitter with 11 strikeouts in a 3-0 win over Doral Academy. She has not allowed an earned run this season in 31.1 innings and is batting .500 through 24 plate appearances.

Thewes, a junior outfielder, went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double and three RBIs to help the Gaels overcome a six-run deficit in an 8-6 victory over Green Valley. She leads the team with a .513 batting average.
