The Corey and Shawn Award

The Corey and Shawn Award is given to the best male dynamic duo in the State.

Previous Winners

2010: Jacob Brooks and Peter LePage Massabesic

Corey Matthews (Ben Savage) and Shawn Hunter (Rider Strong) ruled the TV sitcom Boy Meets World for seven amazing years. As each season progressed the dynamic duo continued to get funnier and wittier. In the show, Corey and Shawn were best friends their entire lives. They did everything together whether it was taking a test together or plotting a scheme on Minkus. Even though they were best friends, there were times where it looked like their friendship may come to a halt. In season three Corey wanted to use a video that he had done to turn in Shawn’s half brother. Shawn didn’t like the idea so he ruined the tape. They ended up getting in a fight in the middle of the hall way that was broken up by Jonathan Turner and Eli Williams. They solved their issues by the end of the episode when Shawn saves Corey from getting beaten up by Shawn’s half brother. Corey asks why Shawn why he would threaten to turn in Shawn’s brother since he was “family”. Shawn responds saying that "you don’t have to be blood to be family". They hit their peak in season five. It was right around Corey and Topanga’s break up and they both gave us some great comic relief. Corey Matthews and Shawn Hunter will be remembered as two of the greatest sitcom characters in history, and two of the greatest people that have touched my heart.

And the winner is......

Stefan Sandrueter and Nate Madeira Greely

Stefan Sandrueter and Nate Madeira formed the most formidable duo in the state as they led the Rangers to a runner up finish at the state meet. It was their high placing which gave Greely a point edge over Caribou for the runner up spot. Sandrueter had a great season highlighted obviously by his fourth place finish at the state meet. Madeira became the most improved runner in the WMC this fall after a great spring in which he ran 4:36 and 10:11 in the 1600 and the 3200, respectively, this year. This was Sandrueter's last season of cross country so it was only fitting that he went out with a great placing at the state meet. And look for Madeira to contend for a top three finish next year.
