The week of June 7-13 saw the 2026 IGHSAU girls state soccer tournament take place at the Lied Recreation Fields and Cyclone Athletic Complex in Ames.
Gilbert participated in the girls state soccer tournament. The Tigers fell to North Scott in the quarterfinals by a 3-0 score to finish with a 15-1-2 record.
It was also a full week of Iowa high school softball featuring teams from the Ames area. Several area pitchers, hitters and fielders turned in outstanding individual performances during the week.
Here are the Ames Tribune female Athlete of the Week nominees for the week of June 7-13. AmesTrib.com readers vote to determine the winner, who will be announced at the end of the week.
Grandgenett played well in defeat for the Gilbert girls soccer team during its 3-0 setback to North Scott in the Class 2A quarterfinals of the 2026 IGHSAU girls state soccer tournament on June 8 at the Lied Recreation Fields in Ames.
Grandgenett did a good job possessing the ball in the midfield and slowing down a potent North Scott attack during the game. She also nearly scored a goal in the first half, as Lancer keeper Nora Barnett just got to the ball as Grandgenett got a foot on it.
Wolfe helped the Ames softball team take down 5A No. 13 Waukee as part of a doubleheader on June 9 at Waukee.
Wolfe went 2-for-3 and she drove in two runs to help the Little Cyclones pull off the upset. Ames lost the other game by a 5-0 score.
Erickson was a huge weapon at the leadoff spot in the batting order for the Collins-Maxwell softball team during a 17-4 rout of Rockford on June 10 at Waverly.
Erickson went a perfect 4-for-4 at the plate during the game. She scored four runs, stole two bases and picked up one RBI.
Martin got a chance to hit, and she made the most of it during the Nevada softball team's 8-7 loss to South Hamilton on June 11 in Jewell.
Martin went into the game with only one hit on the season, but she went 3-for-4 with a double and a run against the Hawks to help keep the Cubs in the game.
Jackson had a big game with the stick during the Colo-NESCO softball team's 19-9 loss to Riceville on June 10 at Waverly.
Jackson was 2-for-3 with a double in a losing effort for the Royals. She scored a pair of runs and drove in three.
