The Wellsboro Hornets Sports Booster Club held their annual banquet June 1 in the Wellsboro High School Gym. The banquet recognizes not only senior athletes and their accomplishments, but accomplishments by all athletes throughout the entire school year. Throughout the course of the night, the Booster Club and Athletic Director Sherri Prough recognized teams, coaches, captains, coaches' award recipients, and outstanding player award recipients from every sport.
Once all the athletic teams were introduced, the athletic memorial awards were presented. Dylan Christman and Brandon Bodine received the Rev. Wade Stewart and John Wilcox Memorial Awards respectively for their contributions to the football team. Sophomore Running Back Chase Barnes also received the Coaches' Award from Head Coach Brandon Falk. Other award winners included Junior Wide Receiver Ethan Callahan (Larue Wilson Memorial Award), Richie Straniere (School Spirit Award) and Caleb Getty (John Prevost Male Athlete of the Senior Class).
Coty Betts also received the 2009-2010 Gridders Club Scholarship from club president Carolyn Keltz.
