RIDGEFIELD — Shannon Boyle. Shannon Boyle. Shannon Boyle.
Can’t get enough of that name, can you? From fall, to winter, to spring.
“I don’t know what I’d do if I didn’t play three sports,” Boyle said. “I would just be so bored. I love staying active.”
It is quite possible, over the last few years, her name has appeared more times in The Columbian’s high school sports coverage than any other athlete in the region.
There’s Shannon Boyle, leading her volleyball team in kills.
Now Shannon Boyle is over there, leading Ridgefield in points and rebounds.
Quick, look this way: It’s Shannon Boyle, leading the Spudders in strikeouts.
Because she has been a varsity athlete in all three sports since her freshman season, and because those teams play, on average, twice a week during the regular seasons, well, you can see how that name became a regular appearance in the local paper.
