“Camilla has been a top varsity racer all season,” Flyers head Nordic ski coach Mattia Hendrickson said. “She leads the team by example and is a hard worker and a supportive teammate. Camilla’s positive attitude and determination play a huge role in her success. She has put in a lot of work this season and her efforts paid off.”

Tembreull, a junior, was a member of the Little Falls girls basketball team.

“Sami is a wonderful person and a great teammate,” Flyers head coach Joel Youngberg said. “Her personality and smile are infectious and she makes her teammates better at practice and competition. Her desire to perform at a high level is so much fun to coach. Our team hasn't had a lot of success when it comes to wins, but to see Sami practice and play you'd think she's playing for the state championship.”
