Zhigao Henrry Xiong - Cross Country
HS Boy
Junior cross country harrier Zhigao Henrry Xiong averaged running more than 40 miles a week over the summer. He was one of a trio of TFS boys to do that, probably a first-ever in the history of the program. Henrry livens up practices with his wit, mannerisms, and desire to be part of a whole bigger than self. It takes dedication to put that many miles in, and Henrry certainly took the opportunities to run and run and run, all with the hope to have a better XC season in which he helps the team perform their best ever at state! -coach Scott Neal
Kate Gary - Volleyball

Through her personal choices and actions, she has demonstrated her care for others, and her entire team, both "A" and "B." Kate's enthusiasm and energy on the court is contagious and uplifting. Her impact on her teammates pushed both teams to complete the opening day jamboree with a 4-2 set record while making significant improvements each time they stepped on the floor. -coach Tim Corbett
