ALJ Winter 2023 G.P.A. Winners

The Arthur L. Johnson Athletic Department recently held a breakfast in honor of the 2022-2023 Winter Athletics G.P.A. Challenge winners, the Girls’ Basketball Team. The event, sponsored by the Athletic Department, was held in the Arthur L. Johnson Cafeteria.

The Crusader G.P.A. Challenge is awarded each season to the team that finishes with the highest overall G.P.A. amongst athletic teams seasonally. They will be presented with certificates, have their team memorialized on a plaque, and be invited for a “Breakfast with the A.D.” to celebrate their actions both in the classrooms and on the courts.

The 2022-2023 Winter Seasonal G.P.A. Challenge winner was the Girls’ Basketball Team with a G.P.A. of 4.206. Members of the Girls’ Basketball Team include: Sofia DiProfio, Eva Puentes, Ashley Samsel, Gwendalyn Cahill, Georgia Sebok, Kaileigh Nettland, Isabella Ciccotelli, Alyssa Martucci, Gabriella Muretta, Mackenzie Thompson, Elizabeth Fitzharris, Avery Forfa, Alisia Hamm, Julia Lettini, Alexa Sikoriak and Jordanna Tarentino.

Athletic Director for the Clark School District Gus Kalikas had this to say about the G.P.A. Challenge winners from the Winter Season: “The Athletic Department is extremely proud of all the members of the Girls’ Basketball Team. The team was able to balance athletics and academics at the highest level, not only competing in the State Tournament in the winter season but also excelling in the classroom, which is evident by the cumulative G.P.A. of 4.206 that the team held throughout the season. The G.P.A. Challenge was a result of years of hard work, not only by the girls, but by the coaching staff as well. They are a model of what it means to be a student athlete and the Clark School District is proud of all of their accomplishments.”
