Huntsville Athlete of the Week Winner

Logan Cain of Hartsell High School is the kind of senior that has it all together on and off the field. He’s been a 4-year letterman with Hartselle football and a 3-year starter for the Tigers varsity squad. Logan has also been the go-to guy on the baseball diamond. He started as a freshman, is a 3-year letterman and was part of the 2009 5A State Championship baseball team for Hartselle High School. He’s winning games in the classroom, too with a 4.02 GPA. He’s actively involved with several school clubs and organizations, but looks at graduating early with an advanced diploma as one of his biggest accomplishments. It’s hard to find a place to start with all the volunteer activities Logan is involved with. He’s done it all, from supporting a drug-free rally at the Special Olympics, to being a teachers’ aide and bible study leader. Logan certainly stands out. Congratulations, Logan!
