Bulldawgs Up For Athlete of Year (updated)

Like virtually everything else in the sports world, the 2020 Topeka Shawnee County Sports Awards banquet was severely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.  The Topeka Capital-Journal made the difficult decision in early May to cancel this year’s event which honors the top senior student-athletes from within the county.  Though the banquet has been pushed back for a few months,  the awards will be announced.
Rossville students nominated for awards are:
Kody Davoren--Fall Male
Davoren, an offensive and defensive lineman, was a two-time All-Mid-East League selection, a two-time All-Class 2A honoree and was selected to play in the Kansas Shrine Bowl after helping lead the Bulldawgs to a 7-3 record and the second round of the 2A playoffs. Davoren finished second in the 3A-1A state wrestling tournament as a senior after finishing third as a junior.
Taylor Morelli--Fall Female
Morelli earned All-East League honors for the Bulldawgs last fall, recording 367 kills, 200 digs, 30 aces and 22 stuff blocks.  She will attend Emporia State.
Zach Archer--Winter Male
Archer was 80-5 in his last two years and was two time 321A State Champ in the 113 pound class.
Kinlyn Lundin--Most inspirational Female
Lundin was a standout throughout her career for Rossville, including being a three-time All-Mid-East League selection in softball. Lundin also earned All-State recognition in 3A for the Bulldawgs during her career. GPA: 3.48.
