ATHLETES OF THE WEEK

Andre Stewart

Newport Harbor, football

Stewart lost two fumbles on the first three possessions, but the Sailors kept giving him the ball, and Stewart, a 5-9, 160-pound senior tailback, kept chewing up yardage, helping the Sailors win a Sea View League showdown against Laguna Hills, 27-10. He carried 38 times for 310 yards, scored on a two-yard touchdown run and helped the No. 3 Sailors remain unbeaten.

* Chris Meyer

Canyon, water polo

Scored his team’s first seven goals as Canyon beat No. 10 Laguna Hills, 11-9, to win the Canyon tournament.

* Rudy Acosta

Loara, football

Had a school-record three interceptions, including a 70-yard touchdown, to lead the Saxons over Cypress, 49-32.

Shelly Raworth

Villa Park, golf

Raworth, a junior, appears to be peaking at the right time. Last week, she fired a two-under-par 34 at the Green River Orange Course in a victory over Orange. The mark set a school record, breaking the previous school record (37), which she held, by three strokes. She had five birdies, one par and three bogeys. Raworth is averaging 39.8 strokes for each nine-hole match.

* Kellie Cramm

Laguna Beach, volleyball

Cramm showed why she is a top county veteran, earning most valuable player honors at the Redondo tournament.

* Lori Mann

Santa Margarita, cross-country

The junior finished fifth in the team sweepstakes race at the Mt. SAC Invitational with county-best time of 18:20.40.
