The Austin Area High School Sports Awards, presented by Thomas J. Henry Law, will be back with an exciting live event again in 2023.
The nine-month student-athlete recognition program will culminate in an in-person show, featuring the top student-athletes from the Austin area. The event’s time, date and venue are still to be determined and will be announced soon.
Nominees for player of the year for Texas state sanctioned sports will be announced throughout the year in the Austin American-Statesman, on its website, statesman.com, and on its many social platforms.
During the live show, these nominees will be honored, along with the player of the year for each sport. The awards showcase will also feature other premier awards for both on and off-the-field accomplishments of student-athletes, coaches and teams, including a courage award and coach of the year, team of the year, and the boys and girls athlete of the year awards.
All official nominees who RSVP can attend this event at no charge thanks to sponsors. Check the website listed above regularly for updated information on how to attend.
The Austin Area High School Sports Awards is part of the USA TODAY High School Sports Awards, which is the largest high school sports recognition program in the country. Last year’s show can still be viewed online at this link. This year, one school from the area will win a $1,000 donation to its school’s athletic department. More details on that are coming soon.
