Clovis East boys water polo player Lochan Zwashka was voted the Roundup’s Player of the Week by members of the Clovis Community for the week of Sept. 23-28. Zwashka scored 4 goals in the Timberwolves loss against Clovis West on Sept. 25. Here is what he had to say about it in this short Q&A.

How did you feel about your performance against Clovis West?

After that performance, I definitely was content with how I played. I felt like I could have done a little bit more to help if I had a team with a little more success, but overall I feel like I did a great job and I was supported by a lot of teammates and coaches that really helped boost my performance.

What does it mean to you that you have the support of the Clovis community?

It just means a lot for me that I am able to be supported by Clovis East and the Clovis community as a whole. I’m really proud of all the people that took their time to vote for me and were able to help represent me, because I feel like I am representing the Clovis community more than just myself and my family and obviously me teammates.

What do you expect from yourself going forward the rest of the season?

I do expect more performances for myself, but I also expect our team to have more success. I feel like I play better when I know I’m representing my team and not just myself. Whatever I can do to help boost our team’s success, I’m going to do my best at that.
