The PEAR Department is taking this opportunity to recognize and celebrate the seniors on our spring sports teams. While we are sad that we were unable to watch them compete this season, we are excited about what the future holds for each of them. Keep checking back in the coming weeks as we take the time to highlight each of these individuals. Click here for our Senior Spotlight archive.

Quote from Coach Dave Ricks:
"Bryan is the school record holder in the 60m dash. He's the best 100m runner we've had in 19 years. He was an intense competitor. It was great that his last meet of his career was also his best.  It's always great to see a senior go out on such a high note."
