Congratulations to Auburn's very own Mrs. Jessica Palos, who has been named the IHSA Sectional Softball Coach of the Year by the Illinois Softball Coaches Association. This is an outstanding accomplishment, and we want to celebrate Coach Palos and her successful season last year. The team won their first regional championship in Auburn High School history. More importantly, it's the tireless work that she puts into this program where awards like these are earned. We appreciate the work you do and on behalf of the Knights of Auburn, congratulations Coach!
