Athena Award Winners Honored
54 high school senior girls from Minneapolis and its suburbs were honored Friday at the annual Athena Awards.
Coming less than a year after the landmark Title IX legislation, the Athena Awards began in 1973 in Minneapolis to recognize outstanding prep female athletes.
Each participating school selects one girl from their senior class for recognition.
For the fifth straight year, Friday’s ceremony took place at the Heritage Center in Brooklyn Center.
