Members of Wareham High School's Winter and Spring Girls Track teams are smart. Really smart.

Recently, 46 members of the two teams (some students were on both) were honored by the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association for academic achievement for this past school year.

At a meeting of the School Committee Wednesday evening, the student athletes were honored for their achievements. Track coach Christopher Gardener said that the winter team's average was 85.7, and that the spring team's was 89.7.

"(The averages were) the highest in the school each season," said Gardener. “(The awards were) something I thought the girls should be recognized for. Without the success in the classroom, they wouldn’t even be on the track.”

Committee Chair Cliff Sylvia also commended the girls for their accomplishments.

“This is what it’s all about," he said. "Academic excellence, and athletic excellence.”

The students honored by the MIAA were: Caitlyn Berger, Emily Cummings, Kelley Peterson, Emma Wynne, Maddie St. Julien, Kia Fernandes, Alanah LaFountain, Paige Fehskens, Lexus Calvin, Zariah Lima, Kendal Haley, Julia Fluegel, Angela Pearle, Mariah Whitney, Cheyenne Noland, Kali Fernandes, Maddy Koslowsky, Hunter Thatcher, Lisa Wynne, Karyna Suarez, Brett McSherry, Chayla Ewing, Sara Tyma, Victoria Eckstrom, Marquise Tavares-Silva, Madison Hough, Jasiti Pol, Sara Gallagher, Ruth Gonzalez, Cienne Fernandes, Paige Cogswell, Heather Holmgren, Kelsey Ireland, Elisabeth Ruiz, Daniella Cobb, Hannah Violette, Hannah Eddleston, Carolyn King, Brianna Williams, Rae-lyn Pina, Daevyn Silva, Amilya Putzig, Elizabeth Griffith, Alexia Barber, Trinity Andrews, and Victoria Baltimore.
