The NHIAA is pleased to recognize two outstanding athletes both on and off the field of play. They exemplify the ideals and values that are the cornerstone of school based athletics and are positive role models in their school and community.

They have chosen Milford High School soccer player Morgan Andrews for the month of November, along with Tanner Nichols from Hinsdale High School.

Andrews is a senior at MHS and is also a volunteer youth soccer coach. Her accomplishments so far include:

Her leadership, whether on the soccer field or volunteering locally as a youth soccer coach and mentor, is one that is inspiring.”
