Student-Athletes Named to Sun Sentinel All-County Teams
January 10th 2020
Pine Crest School student-athletes who competed during the fall 2019 sports season have been named all-county athletes by the Sun Sentinel.
At the end of every season, the Sun Sentinel selects the top-performing athletes in their sport, categorizes them into first and second teams, and names an honorable mention list.
The fall 2019 season was history-making for Pine Crest with the girls’ cross country team earning their third state championship title in School history, and the boys’ and girls’ swimming and diving teams earning their first state championship titles in 30 years.
The Sentinel named Tsion Yared ’20 Girls’ Cross Country Runner of the Year for the fourth time.
The swimming and diving teams had Julia Podkoscielny ’23 and Joshua Hanks ’21 named Girls’ Swimmer of the Year and Boys’ Swimmer of the Year, respectively, after contributing to both teams earning their first state championship titles in 30 years.
