Effingham High School names October 2025 Athletes
The girls’ recipient is senior McKenzie Love in Volleyball. Coach Laurie Bohnhoff said, “McKenzie is a force in volleyball this year. She is our leading hitter and blocker. She recorded a record 22 kills in the regional semifinals vs. St. Anthony. She has been a dominant server also. Her quickness and strength is unmatched. She is very coachable and shows great sportsmanship at all times.”
The boys’ recipient is senior Jack Swingler in Golf. Coach Jeff Schafer said, “Jack led the golf team to an 8-1 record. He was named to the Apollo Conference team. He finished in the top five in the Regional, helped the team reach the Sectional tournament. Jack also finished in the top five in the Sectional. He finished 34th at the state tournament, which is most likely in the three finishes in school history. His scoring average for the year was 36.9 for nine holes and 74 for 18 hole matches (one of the best of all time). He finished in the top 10 almost every tournament that we played. He was a model of ultra consistency. He is one of the top five players at EHS in the last 25 years.”
