Smith's annual Athletic Banquet gives the athletes an opportunity to don the fancy clothes never seen at practice and celebrate the accomplishments of the year. Honored this year were seniors Mary Cote, Jean Egger, Katie Eison-Washington, Ellie Giles, Kristin Peck, and Sarah Romano--we will miss you! Also awarded were the athletes who earned NEWMAC Academic All-Conference: Kayla Clark, Mary Cote, Kylee Drugan-Eppich, Ellie Giles, Abby Mosca, Kristin Peck, Kirsten Silfvenius, and Kristen Warren. Distance runner Kylee Drugan-Eppich also received the Marly Pineda Pioneer Team Award, which is given to athletes who exemplify dedication, passion, selflessness, sportsmanship, and the spirit of a champion. Although she was injured for the majority of the cross country season, she came to practice every day with a smile, ready to cross train and encourage her teammates. She came back strong for both indoor and outdoor track, PRing in
every race she competed throughout the two seasons. Anyone who has been cheered up by Kylee's infectious smile and laugh, or encouraged by her mid-race knows that she truly captures the spirit of Marly Pineda.
