Menlo School soccer goalkeeper Bianca Putanec is the Bay Area News Group’s girls high school athlete of the week for Feb. 17-22.
In online voting that ended at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Putanec finished with 40.93% of the votes. Mitty soccer midfielder Murphy Walsh took second at 25.71%.
Congrats to all the candidates for this week’s recognition.
Putanec, a senior, came up big in goal with four saves of penalty kicks to lift Menlo past Carlmont (1-1, 5-4 PKs) and into the CCS Division III semifinals. She also led the Knights to a win over Notre Dame-Belmont earlier in the week.
