DENVER -- "We hear so often what's wrong with our youth," John Lynch said in front of thousands of kids Friday at Sports Authority Field at Mile High. "We're going to hear what's right with our youth today."

The John Lynch Foundation held its 16th Annual Salute the Stars awards luncheon, presented by the Reiman Foundation and FourPoint Energy, which honors the Denver area’s brightest young student-athletes who excel in academics, athletics and community involvement.

"Sixteen years, and the kids, they astound you each and every year with the excellence that they exhibit in their entire life," Lynch said.

More than $86,000 was awarded in scholarships and awards to Denver area student-athletes who excel in academics, athletics and community involvement.

Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock was in attendance at the event, which was emceed by CBS4's Vic Lombardi.
