Sports Stars returns: Top MCHS athletes to be honored during ceremony scheduled for June 1Free Access


 

 

The second annual Mariposa Gazette Grizzly Sports Stars event will return this June.

It will be held Monday, June 1 at 5:30 p.m. on the campus of Mariposa County High School.

The event was held for the first time last year, and it honors the top varsity athletes at MCHS. Male and female athletes from each sport receive a trophy and recognition in this newspaper.

The athletes are selected through feedback from coaches and athletic directors, as well as input from Gazette sportswriter Matt Johnson. Many things are taken into consideration when selecting the athletes, including their statistics, awards, sportsmanship, attitudes and much more.

“We want to select not only the most skilled athletes, but athletes who embody Grizzly spirit and the work ethic that comes with being a Grizzly,” said Johnson.

The event will also include a special guest speaker who will share an inspirational message with the student athletes.

That speaker will be revealed soon.

The event is free for the public to attend. Refreshments will be served.

Athletes will be notified if they are selected as winners but will not know which award they are receiving until the night of the event.

More details about the event will be shared in the months and weeks leading up to it.
