Each week the coaches at Boulder City High School nominate an athlete to spotlight for contributions to his or her team. This week’s honoree is senior Peyton Koopman, a member of the varsity baseball team who pitched a five-inning perfect game April 25 in a 10-0 victory over Virgin Valley High School. Koopman struck out 12 of 15 batters and was 3-for-4 with a triple, double and three RBIs. On April 27 against Southeast Career Technical Academy, he had a single and a double in the Eagles’ 3-1 victory. Koopman also plays outfield, as well as football and basketball. He is the son of Jodee and Doug Koopman.

You know that Progressive Insurance commercial that humorously depicts a “Parent-Life Coach” advising young homeowners on how to avoid turning into their parents? When the coach corrects homeowners to not chime in on strangers’ conversations, it made me realize, I’ve totally become my mother. (But I’m OK with it, because my mom was awesome.)
