Wednesday evening at The Dalles Middle School, Morgan, athletic department secretary Alyson Vennewitz, along with coaches Steve Sugg, Bob Thouvenel and Jim Taylor presented plaques to award recipients.
Senior Glenn Breckterfield stood out in football, wrestling and track and field this season and was called to the stage by Sugg as Male Athlete of the Year.
On his way to Oregon State University for an engineering degree, Breckterfield was humbled.
“For me, I think this award means that all the hard work paid off,” Breckterfield said. “You have to work hard if you want to have success. Some kids hate going to practice, but I loved it. That is where I got better as a person and an athlete.”
Taking home Female Athlete of the Year was Clark Community College bound Paulina Finn.
In her first three years, Finn starred at Horizon Christian and transferred to the Dalles.
While there was a bit of transition, it was a move she is happy she made.
“I am glad I got to come here in my senior year, because the teachers and my coaches showed me what I need to do to be successful in the classroom and in sports,” Finn said. “What I learned through high school is definitely going to be a benefit for me when I go to college. I am thankful to everyone who has had a positive impact on my life.”
