In an effort to continue the national emphasis and the KHSAA’s own efforts to de-emphasize sports specialization in the athletic culture, the Association recently launched the “Triple Threat Award” program to recognize those students who participate in high school athletics year round.

The award, which is given to student-athletes who participate in a KHSAA sport or sport-activity on the varsity level during each season of the academic year (fall/winters/spring), will be presented to a total of 1,814 student-athletes for 2017-18.

The awards are based solely on each member school’s rosters that were submitted through the KHSAA’s online system, as that is the only permitted determinant for athletic eligibility (including team eligibility).
 

Three Bullitt Central Cougars earned this recognition this year:

Jonathon Barnes: Soccer, Basketball and Archery

Sam Mitchell: Cross Country, Basketball and Tennis

Seth Mitchell: Cross Country, Basketball and Tennis

Congratulation to these Cougars.
