Student Athletes Honored
We have editorialised on this subject before, but we think
it is worth repeating. We are constantly amazed and applaud
the high scholastic honors achieved by our best athletes.
We feature in this weeks Journal Rod Lewis and Scott
Ableman. Both exceptional athletes, but more important, both
exceptional scholars.
Rod returned from Corvallis this week after winning high
honors in the Oregon Junior Academy of Science at Oregon
State University. He will return March 9 to present his project
at the Oregon Junior Science and Humanities Symposium. In
May he will be one of six Oregon students to attend the National
Science and Humanities Symposium to be held at the U.S.
Military Academy, West Point, New York.
Rod won the Ontario Elks Youth Leadership contest last
December. In addition to being Student Body President, mem
ber of the high school band and cboir, he has been a student
leader and athlete throughout his entire scholastic career. He
was quarterback of the football team and a leading scorer and
rebounder on the basketball team, and we are just touching
lightly on his accomplishments.
Scott Ableman was presented with a $150 scholarship last
week as winner of the most valuable student award given by the
Ontario Elks Lodge, to addition to being a 4.0 student, Scott
was an all-star lineman on the football team, playing both ways
on
offense
and
defense.
He is one of the valley's finest
wrestlers, coming within two seconds of being unbeaten, and
finished with a 20-1 record and will represent Nyssa at the
State Wrestling Tournament in Corvallis this weekend.
Listed on the recent high school honor roll were Manuel
Perez and Dar Haney, who will also represent Nyssa at the
state wrestling tournament. Pat Ross, John Tensen, Nico Hop
man were honor roll students who played on the SRV Cham
pionship basketball team. Many other student athletes were
named, and almost without exception members of our athletic
teams are good students.
The girls were purposely left off this small attempt at praise,
but they are given full honors for their accomplishments through
out the year. We only want to point out the kind of students who
have led our teams to championships throughout the year. These
are accomplishments we can all be proud of.
