Mason loved basketball and 8th grade was the last year he was able to play. The foundation presents the Mason Spencer Award each year at the final Tri-Valley Middle School assembly to an 8th grade boys basketball player. Because Mason loved gift cards and took great pleasure in spending them, a $75 gift card is given for the award. This year due to Covid restrictions we were not allowed to attend the assembly/presentation.
The winner is chosen by the coaches. This years winner was chosen based on qualities like Mason such as participation in athletics, academically strong student, a leader, and a great sense of humor. He has faced medical challenges head on and not let them get him down. He is a perfect choice and all around great kid.
The 2021 winner was Lucas Filarski. Congratulations Lucas!!
