Polk Hall student Kain Bristol received the Student/Athlete Award at the recent Fall Sports Ceremony. He earned this award for his hard work- not only as an athlete, but also as a student dedicated to his schoolwork.
The senior earned his GED and his future goal is to attend college and double major in business administration and veterinarian medicine. Bristol, whose favorite subject is math, played defensive end for the Bulls, who won the Del Val championship this past fall.
“It was a really enjoyable season as we won the Del Val League and it was a memorable moment,” Bristol said.
Bristol (pictured accepting the award from Executive Director Garry Ipock) is currently on the indoor track and powerlifting teams and hopes to make it to the state championship in both sports.
He is happy his hard work is recognized.
“I’d like to thank athletic director Pete Forjohn, head football coach Kevin Owens, the rest of the coaching staff, and my teachers for this award,” Bristol said. “I work very hard in school, as well as in sports, and it’s nice to be recognized for it.”
