Throughout each season, the Athletic Department celebrates a student who has gone above and beyond on the fields, courts, or in the riding ring. She may not be the person who had the most points, scored the most goals, or collected the most ribbons (although sometimes she is), but it is always someone who embodies the philosophy of athletics at SBS; hard work, consistent effort, and good sportsmanship.
