NIAGARA, Wis. — On Sunday evening the Niagara High School athletic department had a virtual athletics awards ceremony, giving out various individual awards, including the team MVP awards.

Athletic Director Scott Trevillian and various coaches appeared in a pre-recorded video. A link was posted to the school’s website.
