Tecumseh honors state-champion athletes and coaches at school board meeting
Summary
The board recognized multiple teams and student-athletes, including a girls basketball 2025 state championship team (28-1) coached by Christy Zajac, a volleyball team led by coach Morgan Skelton, and individual bowling champion Kira Pinter.
Tecumseh Public Schools used a portion of its board meeting to honor student-athletes and coaches for achievements this school year.
Athletic Director John Zajac introduced coaches and teams. Volleyball coach Morgan Skelton described a season built on depth and chemistry and said, "Winning wasn't the point. Wanting to win was the point." Skelton noted the team kept 10 players and brought up underclassmen for postseason experience.
Doug McKeon introduced Kira Pinter, who was the individual state champion in bowling and whose team won a regional title. McKeon described Pinter's progress through county and regional tournaments that culminated in a state individual title.
Girls basketball coach Christy Zajac told the board the team finished the season 28-1 and won the 2025 state championship. She said the team's cumulative GPA was 3.8266 and noted the program's sustained academic recognition: "This is our ninth straight year of being academic all state." She added that multiple players will continue to compete at the next level.
Board President Lewis and trustees congratulated the students and coaches and noted additional community recognitions scheduled later that evening. The board said it would take photos to mark the honors.
