SAINT JAMES BLUE-GOLD AWARD WINNERS

The first Blue-Gold Award Winners were presented during the 1979-1980 school year for seniors graduating in 1980.
The Blue-Gold Award exemplifies the male and female Trojans who are truly athletes and support their school in all respects.
The Blue-Gold Award was originally presented on Awards Day, then for a while was presented at Graduation.
Now, the Blue-Gold Award is once again presented on Awards Day by the Athletic Director.  However, there are some award winners missing.
In some of those years, only the nominees are currently available from which the award winners were chosen.
If anyone can help fill in the Blue-Gold Award blanks, thanks would be a-plenty!
