CHANNEL X RADIO'S ULTIMATE TEAMMATE TUESDAY WITH RENE CLOUKEY CELEBRATES ASHLAND STUDENT-ATHLETES
Great teammates aren't just measured by points scored, games won, or individual accomplishments. They're the athletes who lead by example, encourage others, demonstrate good sportsmanship, and make their teams better.
That's what Channel X Radio's Ultimate Teammate Tuesday with Rene Cloukey is all about!
Every Tuesday, Channel X Radio teams up with the Aroostook League to recognize outstanding student-athletes from schools throughout Aroostook County. Each week, one male and one female student-athlete are recognized for their leadership, dedication, positive attitude, and commitment to being outstanding teammates.
We're kicking things off by celebrating two outstanding student-athletes from Ashland District School, Averie Smith and Carson Howes!
AVERIE SMITH | ASHLAND'S FEMALE ULTIMATE TEAMMATE
Ashland junior Averie Smith is helping set the standard for what it means to be an Ultimate Teammate.
A member of both the golf and softball teams, Averie was nominated by Ashland Athletic Director Jordan Beaulieu for her leadership, sportsmanship, and positive influence on her teammates.
During her conversation with Rene Cloukey, Averie shared how much she enjoys participating in both sports and the friendships that come with being part of a team.
For Averie, athletics are about more than competition. They're an opportunity to meet new people, build friendships, and enjoy experiences alongside teammates.
Her commitment to sportsmanship was also recognized this year when Ashland's golf team received a Sportsmanship Award, an accomplishment that means a great deal to Averie and her teammates.
As a small-school program, receiving that recognition was particularly special.
Averie says she's honored to have been nominated and is looking forward to continuing her athletic career at Ashland, including the upcoming softball season and her senior year.
Congratulations, Averie Smith, on being named an Ultimate Teammate!

CARSON HOWES | ASHLAND'S MALE ULTIMATE TEAMMATE
Carson Howes has been selected as Ashland's male Ultimate Teammate, joining Averie Smith as the school's first two honorees in Channel X Radio's new weekly recognition program.
Carson is being recognized through a program that celebrates the importance of leadership, sportsmanship, dedication, and being a positive influence on fellow student-athletes.
Being an Ultimate Teammate means more than performing well on the field or court. It's about encouraging others, putting the team first, and representing your school and community with pride.
Carson's selection highlights the important role student-athletes play in building strong teams and supporting one another.
Congratulations, Carson Howes, on being named an Ultimate Teammate!
