The Northern Maine Board of Approved Soccer Officials recently announced the 2008 winners of the annual “Butch” Shaw Award, presented to the outstanding soccer players in Aroostook County.
The award is named in the memory of Clyde “Butch” Shaw, an outstanding athlete, coach and official who passed away in 1985.
The winners are selected by a vote of the Aroostook County soccer coaches.
In Class B, Presque Isle’s Russ Mortland and Sarah Porter were the recipients.
Madawaska’s Shawn Parker and Susan Lavertu captured the Class D awards.
Class D had three award winners for both boys and girls. Brad Trask of Easton, Marshall Davis of Katahdin and Kurtis Daigle of Wisdom were the boys winners, while Courtney Churchill of Fort Fairfield, Melissa Duffy of Katahdin and Brittany Charette of Southern Aroostook were the girls winners.
