Athletics: SPC Sportsmanship Awards
FWCD celebrated six students and one team that earned Fall, Winter and Spring Season SPC Sportsmanship Awards. Fall awards went to Shamya Freeney ’24 (girls volleyball) and Jack Cimo ’24 (cross country) and the girls volleyball team was a cowinner, along with Greenhill School. Winter awards went to Nara Acuña Guba ’25 (swimming) and Alex Parsons ’26 (wrestling) and Spring awards went to Hannah Cheng ’24 (softball) and Benjamin Hoppe ’24 (boys tennis).
The SPC bestows two Sportsmanship Awards each season: team and individual. Team awards are selected by SPC coaches. The individual athletic awards are selected by school and two student-athletes at each SPC school (one male, one female) earn them each season.
We’re very proud of this year’s fall, winter, and spring SPC sportsmanship winners,” said Director of Athletics Leigh Block. “These student-athletes were selected by the Athletic Department for always being terrific ambassadors for FWCD. These words on our athletics website – our student-athletes win with humility, lose with grace, and compete with honor – are perfectly represented by these kids. Our girls volleyball and boys tennis teams were selected by North Zone coaches as the sportsmanship winners, so that is especially gratifying. We’ve had nine teams win SPC sportsmanship awards the last three years, and we couldn’t be prouder of how our student-athletes represent our school.”
