Athletes Awarded With Annual Banquet

By: Patrick Carey (Grade 10)

The Junior Soccer Team Is Just One of The Many Sports Teams That Attended This Banquet

     At 2:00 on Wednesday, June 12, Chaminade College School held its annual Athletic Banquet in the gymnasium. The annual event would be one of the most anticipated for athletes at Chaminade.

 

     Every year, athletes are honored with their very own banquet, which lets athletes know that they are appreciated for what they do. Not only does the event present awards for the top athletes, but it provides lots of food for hungry athletes. The gymnasium was completely filled with all the student athletes from grades 9-12, and all the grades being able to come together like this just shows the true nature of the brotherhood here at Chaminade.

 

     School ended roughly 45 minutes early, and it was time for every student athlete to make their way down to the gym. No matter how good an athlete is, they are

appreciated because they dedicate themselves to being the best they can be and they make time to be able to attend practices, games, and tournaments.

 

     There were a plethora of awards handed out during the athletic banquet. However, some notable student athletes include firstly, Emmanuel Adeboyega. Emmanuel won 2 awards, the Most Dedicated Junior Athlete, and the Junior Track and Field MVP. Emmanuel is well-deserving of these awards because he dedicates so much time to the sports he loves. He participated in multiple sports, and at the same time, he was elected to be grade 11 president at Chaminade. Emmanuel also maintained a fantastic grade throughout the school year.

     Secondly, Antonio Tripodi received 2 awards, for Track MVP and Most Outstanding Junior Athlete. Not only did Antonio participate in Track and Field, but he participated in cross-country and soccer. Junior soccer won the TDSSAA championship, and he placed extremely well in both cross-country and track events. These were two very notable athletes this school year.

 

     Each year new athletes show off their skills, teamwork, and their academic performance. Next year we will see new faces winning awards and making their mark on Chaminade athletic history. Congratulations to all our student athletes!
