The inaugural Jamie Benson Awards were presented last month. The award goes to one 7th or 8th-grade boy and girl who show a constant work ethic during soccer practice and games, have the ability to be a team player, are honest and compassionate toward others, and have a genuine love and competitiveness for soccer. These recipients received a plaque and a $200 scholarship to a sports camp of their choice. The two winners were Llewellyn Jensen and Olivia Paione, both seventh-graders. Pictured left to right are AMS boys soccer coach: Ben Caswell, Jensen, Jeff Benson (Jamie's father), Paione, and girls' soccer coach Katie Lutts.
