Emma Whitehouse of Seton Catholic girls soccer is The Columbian 2025-26 Week 2 high school athlete of the week, sponsored by Killer Burger.

Whitehouse picked up 184 of the 489 votes cast this week to win the honor.

After 78 scoreless minutes, the sophomore defender moved up from the back to knock in the go-ahead goal in a 2-0 win over King’s Way Christian.

In the included video, Whitehouse answers three questions posed by her teammate: Would she rather drive a motorcycle or sports car, be invisible or read minds and would she rather see babies dressed as animals or animals dressed as babies?

Nominees are selected by The Columbian staff after a review of the previous week’s results. Suggestions for nominees can by made by anyone, but must be received by 6 p.m. Sunday for consideration.
