Get ready to celebrate the area high school sports scene with the Milwaukee High School Sports Awards event! Presented by Festival Foods and produced by the Journal Sentinel, the event will be streamed live on jsonline.com, Facebook, and YouTube at 7 p.m. on Wednesday. Viewers can watch on mobile, desktop, and tablet devices and even catch the replay later.
This year's featured guest is none other than Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon. Coming off a great season in which he rushed for 770 yards and seven touchdowns with a total of 976 yards overall, the 25-year-old is expected to join forces with fellow running back Aaron Jones to form one of the NFL's top rushing tandems as the Packers transition to Jordan Love as their starting quarterback.
During the show, Dillon will participate in a Q&A segment where he'll share his thoughts and insights on topics like juggling busy schedules, transitioning from high school to college, and maintaining a healthy balance between sports and life. Plus, he'll talk a little Packers football!
The virtual event will also feature the announcement of the athlete of the year in 25 sports, as well as premier award winners like Overall Boys Athlete of the Year, Overall Girls Athlete of the Year, Coach of the Year, Courage Award, Boys Team of the Year, and Girls Team of the Year. All athlete/players of the year will receive plaques in the mail after the show.
Don't miss this exciting event and the chance to hear from AJ Dillon himself. And remember to mark your calendars for June 25 when all nominees and winners will be listed in a special Sunday Plus section in the newspaper.
