The Mohawk Valley High School Sports Awards is a multi-month student-athlete recognition program that culminates in a year-end award show. Honorees are selected through statistical analysis, game coverage and coach/athletic director feedback. Due to COVID-19 safety precautions for students and guest speakers, the event was converted to an on-demand broadcast show for 2021.
So far, the Mohawk Valley has honorees in tennis, field hockey, cross country, and soccer.
Such big names will help recognize student athletes in the Mohawk Valley, how cool is that?
