The team voted Dean Foster - Mr. Hustle, Pat Potts - Most Improved, and Mark Jackson - Most Valuable, Most Inspirational, and Defensive Player of the Year. The boys also contributed to help the Jewell Bluejays get the Sportsmanship Trophy. This award was based on the appearance, attitude, and behavior of the teams, coaches, and rally squad, as well as the performances of the team All- Stars.
