🏀 WIAA WINTER TOURNAMENT SPORTSMANSHIP AWARDS SELECTED
STEVENS POINT, Wis. – The Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association, in cooperation with Rural Mutual Insurance, has chosen the recipients of the team Sportsmanship Awards for the 2023 winter State Tournaments.
The winners of the prestigious sportsmanship recognition are Hartford Union in gymnastics, Baldwin-Woodville in team wrestling, Fall River in boys basketball, Albany in girls basketball and the De Pere Co-op in girls hockey.
The award winner in girls basketball is Albany. The Comets were the only undefeated team at 28-0 entering the State Tournament, its first appearance at State in program history. The fourth seed in the Division 5 bracket fell to top-seed and eventual champion McDonell Catholic in the semifinals. It is the third time Albany has been presented the award and the first time in girls basketball and as a stand-alone program. The previous two recognitions were as members of a co-op. They shared the award with Evansville, the host team of the co-op for team wrestling in 2014, and with Juda, which was the host school of a co-op in softball in 2017. The schools receiving honorable mention are Colfax, McDonell Catholic, McFarland and Wabeno/Laona.
The WIAA/Rural Mutual Insurance Sportsmanship Award is presented to one school and community in each of the State team tournaments that exhibits exemplary sportsmanship. The award recipients are determined by the sportsmanship displayed by athletes, coaches, cheer and support groups, mascots, bands and spectators. Additional consideration is given for the effort of school administrators and chaperones to ensure support for their teams are positive and that the highest ideals of sportsmanship are showcased. Award winners receive a trophy and banner in recognition of the honor. Schools receiving honorable mention are acknowledged with a certificate of recognition.
