In a not so surprising vote, the recipient of the Frank Dutille award is going on a unanimous vote to Erin Lavelle.
Frank is the founder of East Longmeadow Cross Country as well as Track and Field. He has the most wins of any coach in school history (161). Frank ran many championship meets while he was also teaching Math here.
Both of his sons are ELHS Hall of Famers.

K-Rod (last year's winner) is tasked with handing out this award.
So to Erin Lavelle, we all must say and repeat:
DILLY DILLY!
