Varsity Banquet/ Record Board Signing

On Tuesday May 1st the team got all gussied up and headed to Reid for the All Sport Varsity Banquet. Before heading over we met as a team and signed all the records that we broke this season which was a ton of fun!

After a quick stop on the steps of Cordiner Hall for a few pictures of the team looking there best, taken by non-other than the President of the College, we finally arrived at the banquet.

And then we raked up! Both men's and women's teams were honored as Academic All Americans. Helen Jenne was recognized for having the 5th highest GPA among all varsity athletes. Both Galen and Karl were honored for being All-Americans. Karl Mering was named male outstanding performer for the first year class, Keller Hawkins won the female outstanding performer for the sophomore class, and Galen Sollom-Brotherton was recognized as the male outstanding performer for the junior class.

What an amazing season with amazing athletes! Congratulations to everyone. Check out some more pictures at our flickr account
