Wendy’s High School Athletes of the Week – Sept. 28, 2022

WIBW and Wendy’s are proud to celebrate the achievements of local high school athletes with our weekly Athletes of the Week honors.

Every week, we talk with standout high school athletes in Topeka who have made their names known through their contributions on the field, the court or wherever they compete. 580 WIBW and 580 Sports Talk thank Wendy’s for their continued support of high school athletes in Topeka.

This week’s female athlete of the week is Ainzley Zulueta, a sophomore from Hayden tennis. Ainzley won her second straight city girls #1 singles tennis title this past week and is on the hunt for another 4A state title. We spoke to Ainzley about her city title, what she worked on from her freshman to her sophomore seasons and her goals for the rest of the season.
