Each week the coaches at Boulder City High School nominate an athlete to spotlight for contributions made to his or her team. This week’s honor goes to senior Montana Lloyd, a four-year letterman and captain of the varsity swim team. She has been a regional and state champion numerous times, and was regional swimmer of the year in 2016. To help the girls win this year’s regional title, she won the 200-yard individual medley and 100-yard backstroke, as well as leading two first-place relay teams. Lloyd holds the school’s record in the 200-yard individual medley and 100-yard backstroke. She is the daughter of Wade and Tiani Lloyd.
