Pete Basil, right, owner of Basil’s Sports Bar and Grill, stood with Braelyn Sperringer and Mio Chiodo, winners of the restaurant’s sixth-annual scholarship awards. The scholarship offers $1,000 each to a male and female high school student from Jefferson, Brooke or Hancock counites who will be attending college. Students must have played sports to be eligible, and they must write an essay detailing how participating in sports prepared them for and will help them in the future. Planning to study exercise physiology at West Virginia University, Sperringer played football, basketball and baseball at Brooke High School. Planning to study law at WVU, Chiodo participated in soccer, track and cheer at Madonna High School. The awardees’ names have been inscribed on a plaque in the restaurant. There were 62 applicants this year. — Christopher Dacanay
