The Star Tribune All-Metro Sports Awards banquet, recognizing the best of the Twin Cities-area high school sports, was sidelined by the coronavirus pandemic this year. So we've made it a five-day affair instead. Today we are recognizing our first of 10 award-winners.
Here's the schedule for announcing all of the winners this week:
Tuesday: Courage in Competition, Play of the Year
Wednesday: Girls' Team Coach of the Year, Boys' Team Coach of the Year
Thursday: Student First, All-Metro Team Champions (dance, adapted sports)
Friday: Difference-Maker, Female Athlete of the Year, Male Athlete of the Year
Saturday: Boys' Team of the Year, Girls' Team of the Year
