HS Tennis & Swimming Honors
We continue our highlights of outstanding performances by individuals in the Astound TV Network’s coverage area this week.
We begin this week’s focus in the pool!
The award for District XI’s Girls’ Swimmer of the Year went to Kayla Johnson (Parkland HS) and the Boys’ Swimmer of the Year was Patrick Gilhool (Liberty HS). The awards are for regular season performances. Both broke the District XI record, as well as the hosting school’s (Parkland’s) pool record.

(Please note: the Colonial League decided several years ago to do away with their league “all-star” lists and that is why no schools from that league are represented. Their exclusion from these lists is the school administration’s decision and not ours.)
