What are STEM/Music competitions/awards that look good for applying to college?

I was wondering if there are any competitions or things to win awards that look good on a college application. Specifically, STEM or music-related things. I don't really have anything for awards, so I wanted to add some to my application. I am a sophomore, so I have time to get awards. I also plan to apply to top colleges, so I want my application to be the best it can and to have awards that look really good. There might be a lot of competitions, so some guidance on websites or types of competitions would be fine. Pretty much anything STEM/music that could get an award.
