At the start of the Dec. 4 board meeting the DeSoto County Schools board paused regular business to recognize several fall state athletic champions.
Principal Shane Jones introduced Akiah (Kya) Robinson, a multi-year state swim champion who won the 50-yard freestyle and 100-yard butterfly titles this season. Jacob Strickland, principal of Olive Branch High School, and coach Gunny Sergeant McInnis introduced cross-country standout Megan Johnson and praised her athletic improvement and scholastic achievement. Principal Dwayne Case and coaches introduced members of a girls cross-country team that won the state title and noted that several runners were unavailable because of scheduling conflicts, but that a group photo would be taken.
Board members thanked coaches, principals and families and invited the student-athletes and their guests to remain for the board meeting or leave after recognition. A group photo followed the remarks.
