Loudoun County, Va. – In an effort to better recognize student-athletes who positively affect high school sports in Loudoun County, Gymnaze and LoCoSports have teamed up to announce Loudoun County High School senior Jimmy Daughtrey as the Gymnaze and LoCoSports Athlete of the Month for January 2022.
Daughtrey led the Captains to a 6-2 mark in January, where they finished nestled at the top of the Dulles District alongside rival Loudoun Valley. During that span, Daughtrey averaged just over 6 points, nearly 4 rebounds, and 5 assists per game.
“With the offense we run, guys get looks, but we have to understand the difference between a good look and a great look,” Loudoun County head coach Mark Alexander said. “I can’t say enough about how we’ve executed and how Jimmy’s taken ownership of that.”
The Captains will look to break free of their tie with the Vikings down the stretch and will lean heavily on Daughtrey’s leadership.
“Jimmy is a leader plain and simple. He shows up everyday and plays extremely hard,” Alexander said. “He sets the standard for toughness in this program by doing whatever needs to be done: playing defense, taking charges, rebounding. He is a complete player whose desire to win and make his team better is unparalleled.”
