In May, the Carondelet athletic department presented its annual awards. Senior Mikayla Scott, from the track and field team, was named the 2016-17 Carondelet Athlete of the Year, Michaela VanderKlugt, from basketball and softball, was the 2017 Senior Athlete of the Year, and Olivia Pereira, from lacrosse, was selected as the Carondelet Scholar Athlete of the Year.
The 2016-17 Carondelet Athlete of the Year is Mikayla Scott. Mikayla had an outstanding 2017 season on the track, competing
in the 100 and 200 meter dash events and on the 4x100 and 4x400 relay teams. During her very successful senior season, she qualified for the CIF State Championships in all four events. She became the first runner in school history to break the 12-second mark in the 100-meter dash and the 25-second mark in the 200-meter dash, when she set school record with times of 11.86 and 24.25, respectively, at the Arcadia Invitational on April 8. She then broke her school records, with NCS Tri-Valley meet record times of 11.76 in the 100 meters and 24.07 in the 200 meters. She also placed first in all four of her events at the EBAL Championships and the NCS Tri-Valley Championships.
The Senior Athlete of the Year Award was presented to Michaela VanderKlugt.

The 2017 Second Team All-EBAL selection helped the Cougars win the 2016-17 EBAL Championship and the 2016-17 NCS Division I Girls Basketball Championship, and advance to the CIF NorCal Open Division State Playoffs. In her three years on the varsity basketball team, she helped the Cougars post a perfect 54-0 record against EBAL opponents. As a member of the softball team, she helped the Cougars advance to three NCS Championship appearances, including a second round finish this past season. During her time at Carondelet, she was a three-year varsity letter winner in basketball and two-year varsity letter winner in softball.
Olivia Pereira from the lacrosse team was selected as the 2016-17 Scholar Athlete of the Year. Olivia
