For the first time, the Valley News sports department has chosen a boy and girl from the 17 schools it covers as Athletes of the Year. It seemed daunting for the photo staff to get 34 portraits done in a short amount of time, but all of the students made it happen. So many of the athletes were gracious and enthusiastic to be a part of it! Here’s a few I did that are my favorites:
From top: Woodstock Union High School junior Abby Kaija, Whitcomb High School sophomore Zak Gillette, Oxbow Union High School freshman Isabella Giesing, Stevens High School senior Chase Hussey and Whitcomb High School junior Lindsey LaPerle were among the area athletes who had their portraits taken at the Valley News office.
