TOWNSEND – Superintendent Brad Morgan is pleased to share that a North Middlesex Regional High School student-athlete was named Gymnast of the Year at the Central Mass High School Sports Awards Ceremony last week.
Samantha Difonte, a rising senior from Townsend, was recognized on Wednesday, June 26 during a ceremony at the Hanover Theater & Conservatory for the Performing Arts in Worcester. Difonte participates in the co-operative gymnastics program with Groton-Dunstable Regional High School.
Difonte holds the program’s vault record with a 9.6, and also holds the program’s highest all-around score of 37.65.
The Central Mass High School Sports Awards is an athletic recognition program honoring the area’s top-performing athletes, coaches and teams. The nine-month program, selecting and announcing nominees each season, culminates in an in-person awards show. The ceremony was organized by the Worcester Telegram & Gazette and by the USA Today Network.
Difonte is also a high-achieving member of the North Middlesex Regional High School Track Team.
“On behalf of the entire district I’m pleased to congratulate Samantha on this achievement, and on being a stellar student-athlete,” said Superintendent Morgan. “It takes hard work and incredible dedication to reach the top in athletics, and we hope Samantha will be very proud of this for years to come.”
