The students were selected not only for their involvement in GHS athletics but also for their academic achievements. They also represent a cross-section of high school athletic teams.
 
“We are grateful for the generous donations made by both Shiner Energy and Mr. and Mrs. Durant,” commented GEF president Stacy Mitchell, who added that the scholar athlete recognition program will likely continue in the coming years with further donations.
 
All of the students will be invited to submit scholarship applications in the spring. Winners of the scholarships will be announced at the high school’s Senior Awards Night on Thursday, May 19.
 
The Shiner Energy award is named the Briggs Berry Scholarship.
 
Based in Granbury, Shiner Energy is an oil and gas acquisition and consulting company with nearly twenty years of industry experience and is involved in ten states. The Durants own a number of car dealerships and are also involved in Thoroughbred horse racing.
