Fall Sports Athletes Recognized
The Fall Sports Awards were presented to New Hampton School athletics on Thursday evening, December 1.
Among many other recognitions, three special athletic awards were conferred upon outstanding members of the Class of 2006:
The Parlanti-Moss Soccer Award
In 1959, two outstanding New Hampton School soccer players, Christian Parlanti and Thomas Moss, combined their talents to lead Varsity Soccer team, coached by David Rice, to an undefeated season. Later as alumni, they created the Parlanti-Moss Soccer Award to immortalize that historic season and to recognize that soccer player who best exemplifies the combination of talent, drive, determination and team spirit of that victorious team. Steve Woodaman was recognized with the 2005 award.
The Gulick Women’s Soccer Award
Former New Hampton Athletic Director, Peter Gulick, and his wife Ruth, whose daughters Phebe, NHS Class of 1980, and Robin, NHS Class of 1982, are alumnae of New Hampton School’s Varsity Women’s Soccer Team, were early supporters of New Hampton’s women’s athletic program. They established this award to recognize both the Women’s Soccer Team and particularly the contributions of an outstanding female soccer player each season. This year's recipient is Samantha Pinsonneault.
Tottingham Cross Country Award
This award was established in 1980 in memory of the late Donald Tottingham, a fine athlete, outstanding English teacher, and Cross Country Coach, who died in a tragic automobile accident following Commencement in 1979. Tottingham, an avid runner who trained for and competed in numerous marathons and road races, was an inspiration whose example influenced the lives of both students and faculty members during his three years at New Hampton School. Each year this award recognizes that Cross Country runner whose discipline and determination commemorates Tottingham’s spirit. Tom Tessier was named the 2005 Tottingham Award recipient.
