Jake Cosgrove - Most Improved Player - Boys Varsity Basketball
As a two-year starter for the boys varsity basketball team, this player was one of the leaders on and off the court. Co-captain during his senior year, he controlled the offense from the point guard position while usually defending the opposing team’s best player. Jake averaged ten points and six assists a game while playing almost every minute over the course of the season. His tenacity and dedication to improving his game from his Junior season were evident by the outstanding season he had for the Varsity basketball team.
