GATORADE HS TF ATHLETES OF THE YEAR ANNOUNCED
 
Despite not having an outdoor season for evaluation, the Gatorade company still recognized scholastic student-athletes nationwide for the 35th year with the announcement of their 2020 Track & Field Competitors of the Year.  
 
Individuals are selected based on three pillars - athletic excellence, academic achievement and exemplary character. Fortunately, New England had a full indoor season of performances, but also included past successes.  Only athletes who ran for their high schools over the past calendar year were considered.
