The DR 'GUS' KEARNEY MEMORIAL PRIZE The Dr 'Gus' Kearney Memorial Prize was first awarded in 1908 in memory of
Dr 'Gus' Kearney, an outstanding sportsman and former captain of the School who died at the young age of thirty-six years in March 1907.
In 1908, Norman Morrison described the award
‘to be awarded annually on the lines of the Rhodes Scholarships, for proficiency in school work, combined with prowess in athletic sports.’ The award was originally provided by the Old Collegians’ Association.
By 1997, this award was defined as being awarded to a boy for all-round ability and service to the College. The equivalent prize for girls is known as the
E H Morrison Prize. The prize is still currently offered each year.
