On Friday, March 8, the winter freshman and junior varsity athletics programs gathered to honor the athletes of the winter season. Awards were given for most committed, most improved, and most valuable athletes on each team.

The Most Improved Player Award is awarded to the athlete who displayed the greatest amount of improvement and growth in their skills which contributed to the success of their team.
The Bernie Ward Commitment Award is named after our beloved former faculty member, coach and colleague Bernie Ward is for the athlete who has displayed the most passion and commitment towards bettering themselves and their teammates during the season.
The Most Valuable Player Award is awarded to the athlete whose contribution to the team contributed most towards that team’s success during the season.

James Bayley, Most Improved for Boys Freshman Basketball: James joined the high school program as the only player from our Latin School. Early in the season, it was apparent that the speed and competitiveness of the league were overwhelming. However, with a strong work ethic, he continued to earn additional minutes in games and became important during our semifinal game vs. St. Anthony’s.
