Raleigh, N.C. The 2020-2021 school year was anything but normal. Thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, the sports schedules were changed, seasons were shortened, and athletics were disrupted.
HighSchoolOT Honors presented by Crabtree aims to recognize all that is good in high school sports though.
On Thursday evening, winners of 37 different awards were named 36 of them voted on by the public, and a Lifetime Achievement Award winner selected by the HighSchoolOT staff.
Public nominations were accepted throughout the school year. At the end of the year, the HighSchoolOT staff narrowed the nominees down to five finalists in each category. Then, over the course of a few weeks, the public was allowed to vote for the winners.
