Loveland, Ohio – The Fall Sports season concluded with the awards ceremony on November 14th. The event was hosted by Loveland Athletic Director Brian Conatser and showcased the success of all of Loveland’s Fall Sport’s teams.

The event boasted all of Loveland’s finest young Fall athletes and all who could attend wore their very best clothes. All of the Senior Fall sport’s athletes sat in rows of chairs facing the large audience of parents after they were individually called into the Chuck Schmidt Gymnasium. The atmosphere was loud, cheerful, and positive as all were being recognized for their hard work, determination, and grit in their respective fields of sport and academic achievement.

Marie Plitt and Drew Vanderhorst were given the Edward Jones Student Athlete of the Month Award.
