The Paton-Churdan athletic teams made a clean sweep in academics this year, according to activities director Chris Petersen.
Every Rocket athletic team – cross country, volleyball, boys basketball and girls basketball – achieved the Distinguished Academic award from the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union and the Iowa High School Athletic Association.
To achieve the award the team’s combined grade point average must be above a 3.25.
Petersen called it “a pretty awesome achievement for out student-athletes.”
