Student Athletes who participated for Thompson Valley High School sports this year were recently honored at the All-Sport Celebration. The event is hosted by the TVHS Athletic Office.
Nearly 170 athletes were recognized for being state participants in a TV sport in 2018. Athletes named to the CHSAA Academic All-State Team were also recognized. The awards ranged from 4A State Golf Champion Darren Edwards to the Girl Lacrosse team being named Northern Conference Team Sportsmanship winners.
Twenty-five students were honored as Golden Eagle recipients this year. The Golden Eagle Award is presented by the team coach to the athlete who exemplifies what it means to be a Thompson Valley Eagle Athlete.
The celebration wrapped up with the naming of Athletes and Coaches of the Year. This year Kaelyn Giefer was voted Female Athlete of the Year. Giefer starred in Volleyball and Girls tennis for the Eagles. A tie resulted in two Male Athletes of the Year. They were Darren Edwards and Justin Wiersema, both multisport athletes. All three athletes were also on the CHSAA Academic All-State team.
