Performance of the Week: Detroit Country Day's Charlotte Cook
June 12, 2026
Charlotte Cook ♦ Detroit Country Day
Sophomore ♦ Lacrosse
Cook has shown already to be more than capable of owning the biggest moments in high school lacrosse, scoring the game-winning goals for Country Day in the last two Division 2 Finals. On June 5, Cook found the net for the clinching score with 29 seconds to play in the Yellowjackets' 13-12 victory over East Grand Rapids. She finished the game with six goals total on 15 shots.
The all-state midfielder eclipsed 80 goals this season and 130 over her first two, and Country Day finished this spring 15-5 to move to a combined 32-8 during her two seasons in the program. Cook also plays field hockey and helped the Yellowjackets to a 15-1-1 record in the fall during the inaugural season of field hockey as an MHSAA-sponsored sport.

Four members of the Student Advisory Council will represent the MHSAA at the inaugural National Student Leadership Summit hosted by the National Federation of State High School Associations from July 20-22 in Indianapolis.
Ben Kowalske of Livonia Stevenson, Bekah Myler of Gaylord St. Mary, Trevor Trierweiler of Portland and Greta Wilker of Belding will join an expected group of at least 100 students who are active in leadership programs in their home states.
Students will be split into groups for instructive discussions on communication with peers and adults, relationship building, social media usage and proper perspective in high school athletics. Attendees also will participate in a community service project with the Indiana Special Olympics.
MHSAA assistant director Andy Frushour, who advises the Student Advisory Council, will be among state association staff serving as adult ambassadors.
Check back at the end of July to learn how the Summit will help Michigan's representatives continue to provide strong student voices in educational athletics. Click to learn more on the Student Advisory Council.
