Both students are tri-sport athletes and starting players in all three of their chosen sports. Fox played volleyball, basketball, and softball. McAlpine played football, basketball and soccer.
The award is named in honor of the late Coach Tim Turner who valiantly coached several MCPS Middle School sports teams while bravely battling a terminal illness.
