Clockwise, from left, are Dalton Martin, Skyler Lawrence and Grey Rische.
Wolf Nation was not born in a day, but huge chunks of it apparently were.
Today might not be the single biggest blizzard of birthdays involving CHS athletes — Aug. 13 had five, headed up by all-world Valen Trujillo — but Oct. 1 has got some sparkle to it.
At least three young guns all popped into the world on this day, and little did anyone know they would all one day be starring for the red and black.
Dalton Martin started as a football player, morphed into a tennis ace and has brought the heat on the basketball court and track oval.
Grey Rische is a man for all seasons, playing tennis (where he often teams up with brother Jared Helmstadter for doubles), basketball and track.
And Skyler Lawrence is a standout on the basketball court (where I have yet to see another player pull a rebound away from her grasp … ever) and as a track thrower.
The trio share several things beyond a birthday and a school.
All three are hard workers, both in athletics and the classroom, seem to have a genuine sense of joy when they’re playing and stand as solid citizens.
Oct. 1 was very, very good to Wolf athletics and we wish the trio much cake and well wishes. You guys (and gal) deserve nothing less.
