Athletes are making the grade
Early wake up, class, eat, practice, weights,
eat, study …. Wait a minute, when do I get
some “me time.”
Students who partake in athletics often find
themselves asking this question. The rigorous
schedule of balancing school work and sports
often leaves little time for Instagram or Xbox.
Students who do manage are those who
take advantage of every minute by following
a schedule and rarely missing a beat. Those
who manage well can often maintain good
grades while playing sports and still have time
for a social life. At the high school level, these
multi-taskers deserve some accolades.
A scholar-athlete breakfast was held at
the junior-senior high school on May 25 to
recognize 109 scholar-athletes in grades 9-12.
Thirty eight distinguished honor roll students,
39 high honor roll and 32 honor roll students
were honored, identified as maintaining high
grades while participating in a sport. Those
recognized received a certificate and a t-shirt
in addition to enjoying a hot buffet breakfast.
Earning special honors were tri-athletes
(participating in three sports within the school
year) and included senior Marin Exler, juniors
Sofia Carrasco, Christopher Harris, Kylee
Merscher, Nathanial Wilcox, Janise Williams
and Ashleigh Wilson, sophomores Sydney
Franchick and Owen Kalimon, and freshmen
Gabriel Prepelka and Jenna Williams.
Senior Colin Henke and freshman Daniel
Schultz were recognized a quad-athletes.
Colin was a contributing member of the
soccer, tennis, bowling and cross-country
teams. Colin is also a member of the marching
band. During the school year, Dan played
soccer, basketball, baseball and was a crosscountry runner.
Junior Natalie Quinn received top
honors as a quint-athlete, participating in
soccer, swimming, cross-country, track and
cheerleading. She is also a member of the
band. Natalie says she maintains this busy
schedule by carefully planning out each week
and allowing enough time to study or read
every evening.
Scholar athletes of the year were also
honored. Seniors Tarik Isak and Nicole
Stengel were name to this elite list,
acknowledged for maintaining high grades
