2016 NOHS Soccer Banquet - Offensive Player of the Year

What an amazing night for the senior boys on the soccer team.

Betsy made a great (but long) 20 minute video of the season.  There were clips of every player and all the championship games.  

The Banquet was held at the elegant Hunting Creek Country Club.  Dinner was delicious.  After dinner Coach Josh Poole presented awards to the outstanding players.  

He forgot to get the letters and pins, so they will be distributed at school.  (oops).

Their were several awards:

Freshman Award - Jack Frazee

Sophomore Award - Caleb Patterson

Junior Award - Dylan Smith

Dylan and Coach Josh

Senior Award - Mason Rice

Defensive Player of the Year - Blake Reitnauer

Offensive Player of the Year - ROBERT LOWE!!!!!

After the awards Mason, Parker and Robert presented the coaches with their thank you gifts - a 2016 season scrapbook made by me and gift cards.

It was so wonderful to have one last chance to get this amazing group of young men and talented soccer players together one last time.

Robert Receives Book Award at NOHS

Tonight was a special night for Robert.   Tonight was the underclassman high achievement awards.  Robert's guitar class was playing the prelude and postlude music, so he had to be there by 5:15.  The award ceremony started at 6:00 p.m.  

Robert was the recipient of the Spalding College Book Award ... a book entitled, A Pearl in the Storm written by the college president.   He was not expecting the award.  He was very happy and excited.

Robert also received the top student award in Physics.  What a great night for Robert.

Award ceremony

Tonight Robert received two Top Student awards.  One in humanities and the other in Spanish.  We are so proud of him.

Really he could have received an award in all of his classes because he works so hard in all of them.  He has all As (even in AP Euro).  

Robert we are so proud of you!!!

Blake Hazelton Award at North Oldham High School

Tonight was a night of awards.  The Underclassman awards were at 6:00 pm at the North Oldham High School Auditorium.  Devon was presented with the Humanities Award.

At 7:00 the Senior Awards ceremony began.   It was to our utter surprise that Jessica was the recipient of the Blake Hazelton Award, the highest award given to a student at North Oldham High School.  It wasn't surprising that she qualified for it; as they read the mantra about the award I thought in my mind how that described Jessica, but probably also several other students.  I was so shocked when Principal, Lisa Jarrett announced Jessica's name.

Jessica was also presented the Teal and Black award for having participated in a sport (or two) and maintained a 90% or higher in her grades.

Overall it was such a wonderful night.  She is so deserving and yet so humble.  I'm so blessed as a mom to have such wonderful children.
