PEARSALL SPORS BANQUET
Martinez, Morales awarded Maverick and Lady Maverick honors.
Pearsall lauded its athletes for their efforts this season on the fields of play and hardcourts, handing out honors during its annual sports banquet at the high school performing arts center last month.
Coaches from each respective sport reflected on the season’s achievements and improvements and then named top offensive and defensive athletes and the most valuable players in each respective sport.
