Woodrow Wilson’s 2016 District 12-5A champion team.
Woodrow Wilson’s high school football team may have been named the 2016 district champions but that wasn’t the only accolade they received this year.
First off, the Woodrow Wilson coaches received the title of Staff of the Year for District 12-5A while junior Cade Fennegan was named all-around MVP; Sophomore Xavier Gipson was named the special teams MVP.
And even though the season may be over, the team’s work isn’t.
On Dec. 15 the students will be participating in a Woodrow Wilson football event to help support the Woodrow Peace Pantry. From 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. residents can meet the football champs and participate in a punt, pass and kick competition by age group. There will also be an opportunity purchase team posters, which can be signed by the players.
The only entry price is a donation of canned goods to be donated to the Peace Pantry, which provides needy students at Woodrow with food. Here’s to a good season and a great cause.
