Without further ado, we are proud to announce the winners of this year's Hy Truman/Donald Goldberg and Hy Truman/Rae Kleinbaum Memorial Awards:

  • All Conference - 2016, 2018, 2019
  • All State - 2018, 2019
  • All State Tournament Team - 2019

What the Mercury Award means to Ali:
"It would be incredibly rewarding to win this award and be recognized as the top Jewish female athlete and join the long list of Blake athletes before me that were also fortunate to win this prestigious award."




Jacob Rochell-Share is the Club's 84th Male Winner. Jacob graduated from Minneapolis Southwest High School this spring and will be attending the University of Michigan this fall. Some of his athletic accomplishments include
