Eight Wheatland-Chili Senior High School varsity athletes were named Genesee Region All-Stars and three fall varsity teams achieved NYSPHSAA Scholar Athlete awards.
Genesee Region All-Stars are nominated by the individual head coaches then voted on by all of the coaches in the league. The Wheatland-Chili athletes named as All-Stars are cross country runners Grace Gocher and Joey Everts; boys soccer players Josh Gebhart, Aaron Lund, and Brian Napier; and girls soccer players Hannah Beldue, Emily Parker, and Niyah Rosado. Additionally, Niyah Rosado was named Genesee Region Girls Soccer Player of the Year.
The Scholar-Athlete program recognizes athletes for their academic success. NYSPHSAA Scholar-Athlete Team awards go to teams whose average GPA equals 90 or above. The Wheatland-Chili teams that achieved the qualifying GPA are boys cross country, girls cross country, and girls soccer.
“It’s always great to see our athletes excel on and off the field,” said Wheatland-Chili Athletic Director Todd Grimes. “When students dedicate themselves to academics and athletics, they really shine as exceptional role models for their peers and teammates.”
