The WCHS banquet saw many students recognized for their accomplishments as well. Three awards were especially important to those in attendance and were saved for the end of the evening. Tommy Seals was presented with the Albert J. Masey Award which goes to the Male Athlete of the Year. Seals, a senior, was a four year starter in football and basketball, all-state and all area in football, scored over 1,000 points by the end of his junior year in basketball, and has qualified for state in track this season.
Candice Warthen was named the winner of the Milledge Samuels award which is given to the female athlete of the year. Warthen led the Screaming Devils on the softball field, basketball court, and in track and field. Warthen has already scored over 1,000 points in just two seasons with the Screaming Devil Varsity basketball team. Like Seals, Warthen has qualified for the state track meet in several events. According to track coach, Marleau Blount, "Candice is blessed with plenty of talent. What makes her great, however, is her work ethic. Candice works harder than many male athletes and that is a lesson that many of our student athletes, both male and female can learn from her."
Boy's head basketball coach, Brian Wallace, was also presented with an award for his eight years of service to Warren County High School. Coach Wallace is one of the longest serving faculty members at WCHS. Wallace has announced that he will not be returning to Warren County next school year. The basketball team presented Coach Wallace with a plaque thanking him for his "hard work, dedication, and loyalty to the betterment of the Warren County High School athletic programs." WCHS wishes Coach Wallace the best of luck in his future endeavors and thanks him for his contribution to the the Warren County Community.
