Seniors Marisa
Volo and Brandon Way have been selected
as this year's CIAC Scholar Athletes for Wilcox Tech. Each year
the CIAC honors students from each Connecticut High School who
exemplify excellence in athletics and academics.
Marisa was a
fullback for the soccer team this year and plans on attending
Central Connecticut State University in the fall. She enjoyed
playing sports in high school because it allowed her to form
close relationships with other kids and coaches outside of school.
Brandon,
also a soccer player was the teams goalie. He plans on attending
University of New Haven next year and may try to continue his soccer
career. Brandon said he enjoyed meeting new kids and striving for
one goal which was to win!
Both athletes stated that their success
in academics and athletics stemmed from doing homework and practicing
during the week and saving their jobs and socializing for the weekends.
Congratulations to both and good luck in the fall!
