Lakehill Athletes Selected for All-District Teams

Coaches from the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) met recently to bestow the coveted honor of All-District teams for Varsity Baseball and Varsity Softball.

These awards are particularly meaningful as they are voted on by the other coaches. Voting focuses on the most deserving athletes and prohibits coaches from voting for their own players. Lakehill had a fantastic showing, with a total of 17 honorees.

The following Lakehill students were selected:

Varsity Softball:
First Team All-District: Sarah Baker, Kara Gamboa, Scout Garnsey, and Eleni Wilsmann
Second Team All-District: Amanda Boles, Jacy Franklin, and Lauren Rosenthal
Honorable Mention: Whitney Beckwith, Michaela Rollins, and Josee Santiago

Varsity Baseball:
First Team All-District: Chris Good
Second Team All-District: Chaz Seeds, Andrew Shaw, and Austin Simpson
Honorable Mention: Jonah Guedea, Brett Trutna, and Joshua Wood

Congratulations to these outstanding athletes on this well-deserved recognition.

There has always been a special bond between the junior and senior classes at Lakehill, and this year's group is no exception. Held amidst the elegance of the Warwick Melrose Hotel, the Junior Senior Ring Luncheon allowed the class of 2010 the opportunity to reflect, to celebrate, and to pass the torch to Lakehill's next class of leaders. After a recap of their successful senior year, Senior Class President Simone Novorr introduced next year's President, Sarah Baker. One by one, members of the senior class introduced each member of the junior class, paying tribute to each junior during this special Lakehill rite of passage.

Following the ceremony, seniors returned to campus where they gathered in the Student Commons for the seniors' final countdown to 3:15 pm. Faculty, staff, and students joined them to celebrate this milestone.
