CHAPEL HILL – Hibriten High’s Noah Haney has won the North Carolina High School Athletic Association (NCHSAA) Performance of the Week award.
His selection was announced Wednesday by the NCHSAA, which picks a female and male athlete to win the state award each week after nominations are received from school administrators and local media outlets.
Leah Williams of Midway won this week’s award among girls after gaining her 1,000th career dig in volleyball.
Haney, a senior, led unbeaten Hibriten (4-0) to a 48-0 victory over South Caldwell last Friday night.
Defensively, Haney had seven tackles (six for lost yardage), two sacks, forced two fumbles and recovered two fumbles and returned one of them for a touchdown.
He is also the Panthers’ kicker and converted six of seven extra points and had two touchbacks among his kickoffs.
The Panthers play Friday at home at 7:30 p.m., facing undefeated Newton-Conover.
