On Thursday May 17 the Annual Grace High School Athletics banquet took place, for the final time at the 86 gym. Next year we\u2019ll move over to our <\/span>new gym<\/span><\/a> here at 46 Cooper Square. At the banquet there were two keynote speakers: David Heller, a minority owner of the Philadelphia Seventy-Sixers, who shared his journey that brought him from a fan to an owner as well as <\/span>Elise Young<\/span><\/a>, a personal trainer and Grace 5\/6 basketball coach, who told a motivational story of how she gained her confidence through athletics. In addition to having the two speakers, teams from all three seasons handed out two different awards, the first being ACIS All-League Awards and the second being the Coaches Award which was awarded to a player that showed strong commitment to the team throughout the season.<\/span><\/p>\n

Junior and Varsity Boys Basketball and Soccer Captain Malcolm Gibson who won the Coaches Award said, \u201cIt has been a honor to be the captain of both the varsity soccer and basketball teams. I felt it was also well deserved as I have worked hard each season but the recognition from the coaches as a leader and hard worker is great and motivating\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Varsity Girls soccer player Ava Pingree said, \u201cBeing the only junior on the team allowed me to make new friends outside of my grade and take a leadership role on the team.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Varsity Softball Captain Katy Arons \u201820 said, \u201cIt felt very rewarding to win an award because softball is my favorite sport and being a captain we put in a lot of work so it felt great. Throughout the year we all really bonded. Everyone really improved and we really came together as a team. It was great and I\u2019m super excited for next year.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Sophomore Varsity Swimming Captain Kaitlyn Lu said, \u201cIt was a big honor for me to be named a captain of a varsity team as an underclassman. This has been a great year, all of us have improved our times for most of our events and we gained a lot of promising freshmen.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Athletics Director Ms. Armijos said, \u201cWe had a spectacular year, many of our teams made playoffs, won tournaments, and Varsity Girls Cross Country brought home a championship banner. A big thank you to Mr. Quinn. I\u2019m VERY PROUD of all our student athletes, you were rockstars and I can\u2019t wait for next year!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
