Cate’s Kyle Mayfield

San Marcos’ Anika Wilson

Cate’s Kyle Mayfield and San Marcos’ Anika Wilson were recognized as Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table Athletes of the Week at Monday’s press luncheon.

The pair came through with prime-time performances last week to lead their teams to victory.

Mayfield scored five touchdowns as Cate’s quarterback in Saturday’s win at Thacher. The Toads were ranked as the No. 1 team in 8-Man Division 1 until Mayfield and the Rams pulled out the rivalry win.

The senior, who also plays linebacker, rushed for three scores and threw for two more.

Anika Wilson was a key player in the Royals’ five-set triumph at Dos Pueblos on Thursday. Wilson collected a game-high 35 digs in the match, a big help in San Marcos’ successful effort staying in the hunt for a league title.
