The city of Gig Harbor will recognize some spring teams and athletes from Gig Harbor High School who were crowned state champions at Monday’s Gig Harbor City Council meeting at 5:30 p.m.

The city will recognize the baseball team, which won the Class 3A state title with a 5-1 win over Southridge recently.

It will also recognize the water polo team, which won yet another state title this year with a 7-5 overtime win over Curtis.

And it will recognize a number of athletes from the Gig Harbor track team who won state titles, including sophomore Hannah Carroll (400-meter), senior Leahi Manthei (300 hurdles) and junior Hadassah Ward (shotput).

The public, of course, is welcome to all city council meetings.
