The five (5) winners, currently high school seniors, were selected from a pool of about 30 applicants, and represent a cross-section of student-athletes from Northeast Ohio that have made a significant impact on their teams, in their schools, and their communities through their contributions toward making themselves better (personal mastery), their teammates better (leadership), and their sport better (honoring the game). Each student will receive a $1,000 scholarship.
2016 PCA-Cleveland Triple-Impact Competitor® Scholarship Award Winners:
“We are thrilled to honor these five student-athletes,” states Marty Mordarski, Chapter Executive Director for PCA-Cleveland. “Their stories of overcoming adversity; their sacrifice and unselfishness; and the ways in which they’ve displayed respect for the rules, their opponents, officials, teammates, and themselves are incredibly inspiring.”
Individuals like Maceo, Mary, Jack, Cassandra, and Mya demonstrate the importance of high school and youth sports as a way for young people learn and practice critical skills that help them develop into better athletes, and even more importantly, into better people.
