BOSTON — Local students each received one of 23 Maine Red Sox Service Scholarships presented to graduating seniors from Maine public high schools this year. They were:

The students were presented their awards at Fenway Park prior to a recent Red Sox home game against the Chicago White Sox.
This is the scholarship program’s fourth year in Maine. It was first launched in New Hampshire in 2010 and now runs in all five New England states outside of Massachusetts. The $1,000 Red Sox Service Scholarships are awarded to students based on academic performance, financial aid eligibility and demonstrated community service.
