Jamie Hess Sportsmanship Award
The Jamie Hess Award is given each year to one deserving boy and one deserving girl swimmer. The award is named in memory of Jamie Hess, a swimmer on our team during the late 1990s and early 2000s who lost a long and brave battle with leukemia in 2002. The award is intended to recognize swimmers who exhibit Jamie's qualities of enthusiasm, team spirit, work effort, and fair play. The coaching staff selects the Jamie Hess Award winners each year.
The Jamie Hess Award is the only special award our team presents to its athletes, and winning the Jamie Hess Award is the highest honor a Barracuda can earn.
