October 2018 Showcase Cinemas Student Athlete of the Month

Maile Somera from Barrington High School and Jack Perreault from North Kingstown High School have been named winners of the Showcase Cinemas Athlete of the Month for October 2018.


Maile has a 4.18 GPA, and has volunteered for the BHS Afterprom fundraising, National Honors society tutor, and the BHS clothing drive. She has successfully led our team to a 13-2 record, securing the second seed for the Division I playoffs. On October 18th she helped lead us to a 3-0 victory over rival Coventry HS with 23 kills, 8 digs, and 2 aces. Earlier this month, Maile reached 1,000 career kills and 1,283 as of today with a .460 hitting percentage. She is nearing 400 kills and 200 digs this season, and maintains a serving percentage of 93% with 44 aces. As the sole captain and one of only two seniors, Maile has taken her leadership skills to a new level, it’s truly like having an assistant coach on the floor. All the while Maile displays the utmost respect and sportsmanship to her coaches, teammates, opponents, referees, and fans alike. Maile is an exceptional student-athlete and has displayed her best this past month both on the court and in the classrooms.
