Hilltoppers' Players/Coach earn Honors...

                Recently the Western Athletic Conference announced their All-Stars for the 2010 Spring Season. Some of the team members were Hilltoppers.  Also, Captial District's Largest Newspaper, The Albany Times Union announced their Large and Small School All-Area Baseball Teams.  Three members of the Hilltopeprs made that team as well.  Our Head Coach, Craig Phillips, also was given an award.
