Many families, friends, coaches and staff joined together to celebrate the standout performances, leadership, sportsmanship, and achievements of our student athletes during Varsity Athletic Awards Night on June 3. The annual end-of-year sports awards ceremony honors the dedication, hard work, and enthusiasm that our Cannoneers consistently demonstrate on the field, the court, or the track.
