The foundation has awarded scholarships to more than 500 students since its inception. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Eight decades after he starred on the mound at Andover and went on to play for Yale\u2019s baseball team, Phelps, 97 and in attendance, reflected on the relationships and memories he formed as an athlete \u2014 more so than any win or loss. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cHopefully, the one overriding memory of all these contests will be the friendships that you\u2019ve made on the athletic fields,\u201d said Phelps, who was flying back to his home in California after the event. \u201cThose will be, I\u2019m sure, the greatest memories of your athletic career.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Globe columnist Dan Shaughnessy noted the event is one of his favorite days each year.

Hennessy\u2019s dominance on the track and the trails culminated in a 41-second win in the Division 1 Meet of Champions and 14-second win at Brooks Northeast Regionals, and she graduates as the Massachusetts girls\u2019 record holder in the indoor mile, outdoor mile, and outdoor 2-mile. She will run at Washington.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAll the memories I\u2019ve had with all my teammates and my coaches, and just having them all push me to be my best, and just training with my best friends has really been such a blessing for these past four years,\u201d said Hennessy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Curry, who will play lacrosse at Notre Dame, won the NEPSAC boys\u2019 honors after starring on St. Sebastian\u2019s ice hockey team, which captured the Independent School League title, and the boys\u2019 lacrosse team, for which he tallied 94 points last season and earned All-American honors. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Vana was the NEPSAC girls\u2019 honoree.
