Turn named Triple ‘A’ winner for Minn.’s Sub-section 32

Morgan Turn and Gus Gunnarson, Kittson Central’s Triple ‘A’ Award winners, were recognized along with other seniors from schools in Section 8 at a banquet in Mahnomen on Wednesday, Feb. 5. The Academics, Arts and Athletics Award, commonly known as the Triple ‘A’ Award, honors high school seniors throughout the state who have a 3.0 or higher grade point average and who participate in League-sponsored athletic and fine arts activities.
Turn was the Sub-Section 32 winner and was selected as the overall female winner for Section 8. She is invited to a recognition banquet in March where League officials will announce the four statewide Triple ‘A’ Award winners at that time.
All 32 finalists will also participate in an on-court ceremony during the Class AAA championship game of the Boys Basketball State Tournament.
The statewide award winners—a girl and a boy from Class A and Class AA schools—will also receive a four-year $1,000 scholarship.
