Each year, the Post Register newspaper holds a Sports Stars recognition event honoring local high school athletes for their accomplishments.
West Jefferson junior Alena Messerli was one of the top three finalists for the Female Wrestler of the Year award and received a certificate at the evening event held at Hillcrest High School in Idaho Falls.
Congratulations Alena!
Just in time for Mother's Day and garden planting!
