Four members of Northwood High School’s coed swimming and diving team received the Scholar Athlete Award and an amazing 23 team members earned the Minds in Motion Award at the school’s Winter Sports Awards Night on Wednesday (Feb. 29).

 

Northwood used the occasion in the school auditorium to shine the spotlight on its top performers in the classroom as well as on the playing fields.

 

Hailed as Scholar Athletes – the evening’s highest honor for student-athletes -- for attaining a perfect 4.0 grade point average during the winter season were Gabriella Cottilli, Emerson Milam, Chelsea Vanderweele and Anna Zastrow.

 

In addition, 23 swimmers and divers were cited with the Minds in Motion Award for recording at least a 3.25 average during the second marking period of 2011-12 at Northwood. The recipients were Dawit Blackwell, Jake Blakely, William Bbravo, Ricardo Francis, Nicholas Gunnison, Luis Gutierrez, Anthony Jannotta, Moises Morales, Evan O'Neill, Ross Ogden, Neil Sauter, Christopher Stubbs, Andrew Vanderweele, Gabriella Cottilli, Jenny Eisenhuth, Amanda Frew, Lauren Gunnison, Emerson Milam, Alexandra Moser, Lara Skibbie, Chelsea Vanderweele, Anna Zastrow and Morgan Kershner.

 

Stephanie Vukovich, coach of the swimming and diving team, presented her awards for accomplishments in the pool: MVP (boys), Austin Moore; MVP (girls), Chelsea Vanderweele; Unsung Hero, Nolan Jannotta; and Rookie of the Year, Shannon O'Rourke.

 

Chelsea Vanderweele received some major recognition from USA Swimming, being named to the SCHOLASTIC ALL-AMERICA TEAM -- high school student-athletes who have a grade point average of 3.5 or higher and who have achieved the required time standard in a single event.

Women – Northwood 97, Clarksburg 68

 


Swimmers and Divers Enter Season With High Hopes

 

The Northwood varsity swimming and diving team will compete in seven meets in 2011-12, which includes two contests in the Martin Luther King Pool in White Oak, considered the home facility for the Gladiators.

 

The season is the third for Stephanie Vukovich at the helm of the Gladiator aquatics teams.

 

The regular season schedule kicks off on Dec. 3. All meets take place on Saturdays through the final weekend in January. The Gladiators do not face neighborhood rival Montgomery Blair HS in swimming competition.

 

Northwood continues to compete as a Class 3A school in the state’s West Region. Several other familiar opponents, such as Clarksburg HS, were moved up to Class 4A because of their growing enrollment. Every two years, the state reclassifies high schools based on student enrollment gains and losses. Northwood, with roughly 1,400 students, is one of the smallest schools in the 3A West.
