This week’s Leskovar Honda Athletes of the Week are Butte Mucker Trapper Stajcar and Mining City Magic player Lily Sandoval.

Stajcar takes home the boys’ accolades after a stellar performance at the Missoula Maverick’s Firecracker Tournament. He helped lead the Muckers to a 3-2 performance. The Butte boys didn’t make the title game, but they beat both teams that did.

On the tournament, Stajcar went 9 for 12 at the plate. The speedy outfielder scored 12 runs and stole 13 bases. In 24 games with the Muckers, Stajcar is batting .444. He has scored 34 runs and swiped 37 bases. Stajcar has only been caught stealing two times, and both times probably should have resulted in a balk call.

Sandoval takes home the girls’ honor for her stellar weekend at the Capital City Classic in Helena. Sandoval sold out with diving catches while batting cleanup all weekend for the 14U Magic, helping lead the girls to the tournament title.

“It’s a joy to watch her, but it is even better to coach her,” said Magic coach McCaul McCarthy, who is shown in the photo with Lily. “Lily’s can-do attitude is contagious, and it was just what we needed pushing into the championship.”

For the second year, Leskovar Honda, home of the 20-year, 200,000-mile warranty, is teaming up with the ButteCast to honor the finest student-athletes from the Mining City in an effort to encourage more children to get up, get out and try all kinds of sports and activities.
