KHQA-TV, Chris Duerr, and Advance Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine are proud to once again bring you Student Athletes of the Week! This program recognizes Tri-State area high school seniors who excel both on and off the field. Student Athletes are recommended by their Athletic Director, principal or coach, and must be in good academic standing. Nominees should have a minimum 3.5 or higher GPA on a 4.0 scale, and must be a participant of an IHSA, IAHSAA or MSHSAA recognized sport. Student Athletes are then chosen by an independent Student Athlete Review Board.

The KHQA Advance Physical Therapy Student Athlete of the Week is featured each Wednesday on KHQA’s Evening News at 6pm throughout the school year. Each Student Athlete will be honored at a banquet in June. Parents and the coach of the Student Athlete may also be present. New this year, at the banquet we will be presenting two awards, one male and one female, as the KHQA-Advance Physical Therapy Student Athletes of the Year. Each will also receive a monetary scholarship award.

For more information on the Student Athlete of the Year, please contact KHQA at 222-6200 or email cduerr@khqa.com or jpieper@khqa.com
