GROVETON — The boys and girls of Groveton ISD’s athletic squad were lauded for their work in the last season at a banquet on May 22.

Some of the highlights include:

•The boys basketball team had its first winning season in 10 years.

•The boys powerlifting team went to regionals, after not have a team since 2010.

•The softball team, undefeated in district, went to the regional semifinals, where they lost to the team ranked No. 3 in the state.

•There were 52 academic all-district nominations and eight state qualifiers for the Groveton Indians and Lady Indians.
