Academy spring sports athletes and their families, along with their coaches and Academy administration, celebrated their record-setting accomplishments on Wednesday evening, May 2, in the Brady Center. As District, Region and/or States qualifiers, students receiving awards and commendations represented the best of an outstanding team effort by all four sports.

We look forward to the challenge of trying to live up to the standards that this phenomenal group of athletes have helped to set.”
