The event, sponsored by the Abingdon Booster Club, honored all the endeavors of the Falcon athletic teams. Many awards were presented to individual athletes who had shown outstanding parti¬ cipation during the year. A Sport’s Assem¬ bly, held before the student body, gave students a chance to see all the men and girls involved in athletics. Falcon athletes practiced the four factors for success; desire, dedication, confidence, and loyalty, and as a result brought much honor to themselves and to Abingdon High. Nrwv 22
