SUMMIT–On Tuesday evening at The Grand Summit Hotel, the Summit Boosters Association hosted its 24th annual Summit High School Senior Athletes Banquet. More than 150 senior Hilltopper athletes were honored during the evening, which included a dinner, plaque presentation, and an announcement of the eight Howard S. Anderson scholarship recipients.
To be eligible for the $1,000 scholarship, the student athlete must be in the top 50 percent of their class and participate in at least one sport at Summit High School.

Anderson scholarship were:

Before the evening came to a close, Hilltopper athletes, parents, and coaches enjoyed a video tribute to the Class of 2010, presented by seniors Trevor Silverstein and Matt Mulholland. The tribute showed photographs of each senior athlete in action, whether it be on the court, field, ice, track, mat, in the swimming pool, or at the bowling alley.
