State Honors for Shorewood Runners...

Note from Coach Dom:
WOW and we all thought the CC season was over with all the Honors? After I send this out I think I can take a break from the season! Congrats goes out to Ben Tyler and Peter Drews for earning Second Team All State in Cross Country. While Emily Bachhuber earned First Team All State. Listed below in red. Another exciting finish to the season is that the top 7 individuals that ran at the State Meet will earn the WCCCA Academic ALL State Awards. This was earned by averaging the top 5 GPA's on the team and if we had a GPA higher then a 3.4 then all 7 will receive a certificates for recognizing their academic achievements. We had a combined GPA of 3.94 for our top five and a 3.76 for our top 7. It just goes to show how Athletics and Academics goes hand in hand. Awards will also be presented to all runners with a GPA of 3.5 or above based on a 4.0 system (I'm Sure that Emily is in there). I'm equally proud of your accomplishments on and off the course. Keep up the GREAT studying habits!
