    What do you do for fun?

    I enjoy playing X-box, which most people are surprised to learn, and I like to go shopping, which most people expect from a girl.

    How about school clubs?

    Beta Club.

    Favorite school subject and why:

    Peer tutoring, because when I go into that room – no matter how my mood has been all day, those kids put me in a good mood.

  • Busting the scholarship myth

    I’ve thought long and hard about doing this column on misconceptions regarding the availability of college athletic scholarships.

    On the one hand, I don’t want to discourage local athletes from reaching for their dreams. On the other hand, I know there are many athletes and parents out there who think that athletic scholarships are easier to obtain than academic scholarships.

    I know others who mainly want to see their kids get athletic scholarships for the prestige it will bring them amongst their sports-crazy friends and peers.

  • Peyton's State Runner-up...

    The all-state golf selection system is one of the least subjective in high school sports, and because of that, a young athlete can be rewarded for their efforts even if they don’t come from a big-name program.
