Only the first place finisher gets all the accolades anyway.When local high school athletes pour their heart and soul into various sports,one would suspect that they're thinking about going pro.That's not going to happen.The ratio of those who actually make a pro sports team vs those who don't is astronomical.One in a million.My point is that they need to learn good sportsmanship first and foremost.That will be their greatest accomplishment.
