Summary

Amy O'Neil, Matthews High School athletic director, delivered a lengthy spring sports recognition at the board meeting, reviewing team records, postseason results and individual honors across several sports. She noted baseball players Hunter Horsley and Blake Hunley earned district and regional honors; crew sent boats to states including a bronze in the men's senior double; and boys soccer won the state championship under Coach Craig Raines.
O'Neil also highlighted individual accolades across programs (for example, Sal Cardenas as male Athlete of the Year and multiple first- and second-team all-district and all-region honorees), celebrated college signings (including Lila Duff), and recognized volunteer contributions — notably photographer Charlie Koenig for more than 35 years of service. Board members responded with thanks and praise for coaches and staff.
