Big congratulations to MCC Junior Kelby Augustine!

Today was a special moment for Kelby as he was recognized as one of 34 Minnesota juniors selected for the ExCEL Award during the Girls Basketball State Championship Tournament at Williams Arena.

The ExCEL Award (Excellence in Community, Education, and Leadership) honors Minnesota high school juniors who demonstrate strong leadership, involvement in school activities, and a commitment to serving their communities. The award is sponsored by the Minnesota State High School League and TruStone Financial Credit Union.

This recognition is well deserved. Kelby is one of our most involved students at MCC. He participates in football, basketball, and baseball, and is active in band, choir, pep band, the school musical, Knowledge Bowl, and National Honor Society.

Outside of school, Kelby stays busy through 4-H, church activities, and performing music with his siblings at community events. During the summer, he also gives back to younger students as a Summer Rec Coach for our school.

We are proud of the way Kelby represents MCC through his leadership, service, and involvement.

Way to go, Kelby!
