On March 9, Buckley Country Day School handed out its winter athletic awards.
“I am so proud of all of our student-athletes,” said Buckley Athletic Director Isaac Neal. “They practiced hard, competed in every game, and showed incredible sportsmanship throughout the season.”
In all, 33 student-athletes from 11 basketball teams were honored. Three of those award-winners were Manhasset residents: seventh-grader Michael Marrale, who was given the Bulldog Spirit Award on the Boys 7/8 Blue basketball team; sixth-grader Gavin Kim, who was named the Boys 5/6 Blue basketball team’s Most Improved Player; and fifth-grader Olivia Marrale, who received the Bulldog Spirit Award for the Girls 5/6 Purple basketball team.
