According to Mount Assisi Academy Director of Athletics June VerSchave, MAA’s 2009 Varsity Softball team, coached by Brad Reynard, Ron Hause, and Bob Kelly, recently was honored with the South Suburban Officials Association’s (SSOA) Sportsmanship Award. This award is designed in conjunction with the IHSA’s Sport: A Winning Attitude and Do What’s Right programs, focusing on local regions. The criteria utilizes in determining this annual award is based on rankings submitted by SSOA Officials at the conclusion of the season, and awards are announced at the beginning of the next year’s season. In rating a team, officials not only consider the sportsmanship of the players and coaches, but also that of the team’s fans.

MAA Athletic Director June VerSchave noted that “Mount Assisi Academy is proud to be honored by the SSOA. We look forward to maintaining the same level of sportsmanship throughout our 2010 softball schedule.”
