Greta Platts, Wyatt Ramus Named Athletes of the Week

Platts powers Gilbert’s regional run

The report says Platts played a decisive role as Gilbert advanced to the state tournament. Her impact came in both matches rather than one isolated moment.

  • 2-0: Gilbert reportedly defeated Nevada in the regional semi-final.
  • One goal: Platts scored in that victory.
  • Three assists: She created all of Gilbert’s goals in a 3-1 regional-final win over Bondurant-Farrar.

That contribution underlined her value in high-pressure matches. Gilbert, reportedly ranked fifth in Class 2A, needed two wins to continue its season, and Platts influenced both outcomes directly.

Ramus controls the mound

Ramus earned recognition after reportedly leading Roland-Story to a 10-0 victory over Greene County. The right-hander completed all six innings, giving the Norsemen control from start to finish.

  • Six innings: Ramus saw out the complete game.
  • One hit allowed: Greene County managed limited contact.
  • Nine strikeouts: His pitch control repeatedly ended scoring threats.
  • Two walks: The report says he kept traffic on the bases under control.

The outing matched the result: a shutout performance behind a double-digit Roland-Story score. It also helped the undefeated Norsemen maintain their momentum.

Awards built on team impact

The report says Platts received 79% of the vote, while Ramus secured 71%. Those figures reflect performances tied closely to team success: Gilbert reached the state tournament, and Roland-Story remained undefeated after a commanding win.

Platts now faces the next stage of Gilbert’s postseason push, where her attacking influence will again be tested. Ramus, meanwhile, will look to build on a six-inning shutout as Roland-Story continues its unbeaten baseball campaign.
